Cambridge Chronicle prominently publishes letter

The June 16, 2011, edition of the Cambridge Chronicle very prominently published my letter on the destruction of Alewife, and the celebration of destruction on the Charles. I associated these actions with a letter from an associated writer mentioning, yet again, peripheral matters at Alewife.

I stood with that woman at the edge of the Alewife destruction zone at the beginning of the destruction. Her letter, as her letters have for 15 years, talked about peripheral issues at Alewife but did not mention the destruction of the core Alewife reservation. Her friends were celebrating destruction and neglecting to tell their fellow celebrants what they were celebrating.

My letter was in the featured spot of the Cambridge Chronicle’s editorial page, upper left corner where the lead editorial is put.

The letter was published on this blog and linked by the Boston Globe’s www.boston.com.

Thank you to the Cambridge Chronicle and to the Boston Globe.
