I’ve got my tickets and I’m looking forward to the show.

Just saw the 7pm show and really loved it.  Being from the Boston area I knew all the accents and references…and I am so glad I got out of my Massachusetts city!! The show was real. Very real.

UPDATE: New Castle Approves a Smaller Plan

Disgruntled Developers Tell Town to Take This Land and Buy It! – Lawsuits – Curbed NY.

Chappaqua Reader's Digest

What a waste of time for everyone. This would have been a perfect site for a mixed use development as it is an expansive and beautiful site . The site nearly abuts the Horace Greeley High School and the area is certainly not a secluded quiet area of Chappaqua. It is not far from the Clintons very modest home and a large private golf club. New condos have not been developed in this tony village for a long time. Seniors and other down-sizers need options. New Castle’s only moderate income property is located on the other side of town-on top of the Taconic State Parkway-So we know how the town feels about those with less than average Chappaqua income levels. Shame on you New Castle. I hope the court orders a fair and high forced sales price.

Shady. Shady. Sound like another Republican conflict of interest not unlike Justice Thomas’ wife’s dealings. It may not be improper but it certainly looks improper. The appearance of impropriety is not good. Follow the money.
