Westfield

So residents of Westfield, what do you think of the new clock tower?

While I like it, I have heard a lot of varied response to it. I feel that once the rest of the projects are done and there are plantings nearby, it will look even better. Many others, however, really dislike the tower.

In other news, constructions is going hot and heavy again downtown. Outside the Park Square Realty office at 44 Elm Street, Westfield, MA the crews were hard at work this week ripping up sidewalks and curbing.

As I journeyed down Main Street towards East Main today, I was met with significant delays due to traffic funneling down to one lane for continuing road improvements. This construction is making it difficult to schedule home showings for my home buyers in Westfield, as you never know how long it will take to get past the various construction sites.

On Court Street a more attractive job was being done as trees were added to the belt running down the middle of the road.

Some day, when these jobs are done and Westfield is a beautiful place, we will be glad for these disruptions, but for now, they are a major pain in the bum! It is encouraging to be seeing progress, even though it slows the cross town commute.
