Michigander in Mass

At least, that seems to be the opinion of the Mayor. When Somerville's dog owners brought the vacant land in the Inner Belt Park to the city's attention, the response was to consider it another revenue source to be sold off and taxed.

The mayor's office has proposed the site be made available for potential sale.

East Somerville is in drastic need for more park space. Although this parcel is not right next to a residential area, it is very close to the proposed Green Line Washington Street station would be, and to the Community Path once it's finally completed and linking up Somerville with Boston and Cambridge's North Point.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a little more greenery in East Somerville?
