On what ground exactly should the City of Worcester propose that they should take this property via Eminent Domain???
I am truly amazed that anyone on the City Council has proposed this and actually supports it.. Couple of questions:
- What message does this send out the developers?
- I can only imagine the legal bills the City would incur to pursue this not to mention the purchase price of the parcel!!!

Well, the city does need more low income housing. Maybe it will be an overflow lot for the airport. The city of Worcester has no business in business. The atrocious deplorable state of worcester should be an awakening to those at city hall. They have no business taking land for anything. I do understand that no one wants to build anything in this eyesore city but still, the city needs to let it be.

The private developers stooped at the gate...again..my thoughts are Wyman is behind this because they know the city would jump the way they are. In Paxton a developer wanted to build a complex no one wanted then threaten with low income...what happens the government comes in and buys the land...for a cool million....Levi was all over this the other day...
Who on the CC proposed this?
Maybe we could make it into Dodge Park South which is another 110% assinine idea for taking private property for an addition to a park that is already 110% NOT USED and besides North Park IS only 1/4 mile away. This classic obstructionism and frankly this is the kind of housing that Worcester needs, not more Low income housing.
