Where is Denise Provost making a difference?
Union Square
Union Square is Somerville's oldest commercial district, originally bearing the name "Sandpit Square." The site of a Union Army recruiting station during the Civil War (look for the stone that marks the spot), the square took its present name from the cause of national unity. Formerly served by two railroad lines, Union Square is potentially poised for the return of rail-based transit, and revival as a successful urban neighborhood.
Background Information
The "Kiley Barrel" site comprises 25,391 square feet adjacent to the city-owned parking lot near the intersection of Somerville Avenue and Prospect Street. OHCD and the Somerville Redevelopment Authority (SRA) have purchased the property as a redevelopment site
