What's happening to Stanwood?



Progress! I guess we cannot stop it even if we tried. I don't live in Stanwood proper, I live a bit out of town up in the woods (sorta). But look what is happening to this delightful little town. And this is right in town too. I showed you pictures of downtown Stanwood before with it's brick lined street--country yet all the up to date stores.

MB,
I don't know what happened t Stanwood, I can't find the pictures. But I know what you mean about small towns changing, the one I grew up in doesn't look anything like it did when I was at home. Very sad. People should just leave well enough alone.

Progress is everywhere, even if we dont like it. Enjoy your land since its still in the counrty.. Have a great day.

MB,
There it is! Yea all new houses, I like the older ones they have more charm, might be falling apart but charming.

There they are!! I know how you feel, progress is needed I guess, but I hate to see track homes come in and destroy the land, chase the critters out and make no sense of it? Such a shame!

-sigh- Yes, it happens. And if Stanwood is wise, the City Fathers will get on top of this. Pass local ordinances which limit what-can-be-built-where and etc. Otherwise, building will run rampant and...... -sigh-

I of what I speak..
