PUBLISHER'S CORNER


The brickwork on the new housing complex at Merrimack and Pine is looking good. Workers were out there in the rain the other day. They're on a mission to help deliver some workforce housing into the mix. These particular projects are shifting the landscape of the downtown in more ways than one.

It's important for the city's future that these projects get completed on time and within budget. It's important for the city that we find our way quickly to the next chapter, a city that has a handle on the homeless and the working and middle class have places to live that are safe, beautiful, functional and affordable.

Onward, Manchester. Let's keep it going.
