to preserve the eastern, undeveloped, greenspace portion of the parcel of land at 198 East Avenue, Burlington.

Summary of Projects

Friends of East Ave received a grant in 2009 for attorney fees in an effort to challenge the proposed development. The project seeks to preserve a valuable urban greenspace as the proposed development is on a narrow strip of property nearly adjacent to Centennial Woods. The group is working to preserve the neighborhood's character and natural environment
