The People, the Place, the Heart
 

We advocate the development of a community that is...

Well-informed - knowledgeable about the historical and cultural legacy of the area as well as its environmental and ecological issues;

Socially vibrant - a true community center where people want to walk, relax, and socialize, as well as work and shop;

Culturally active - resplendent with arts and crafts exhibits, community musical theater events, parades, and seasonal and historical celebrations;

Historically sensitive - a community that genuinely cares about its past and is committed to the preservation and restoration of its buildings of architectural note;

Aesthetically-minded - committed to good design and beauty in our architectural and natural environments.
