By returning to the neighborhoods at different points during the year, we get to see change.

 

Right now the gardens are in full bloom. This is worth remembering when the planters and gardens are resting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Capewell, which was gutted less than one year ago, is looking like a proper building again. This building had been one of the many that the “just tear it down” crowd deemed hopeless. CRDA closed on the property in June 2015, with the expectation that this project would complete in about eighteen months. The 72 housing units (20% of which are affordable; 80% market rate) should be ready for occupants in late 2016 or early 2017.

This neighborhood, located south of downtown, is seeing a lot of new and renovated housing — from the mixed-income Stonington Acres to Capewell Townhomes to Colt Gateway to Dutch Point.
