Now, with the City on the verge of approving the project—the stipulated community input period comes to a close next month, and only one public meeting has been held thus far about the most recent plan—Houghton and other neighborhood activists say their concerns about proposed housing density, open spaces, transportation, and retail opportunities can wait no longer.
