The Last Lot

If you’re like me, you pass the vacant lot almost every day and wonder:  How can such valuable property just sit there?

The answer is: not much longer.

What may be the last undeveloped Post Road parcel in town — across Roseville Road from McDonald’s, directly across the street from Cumberland Farms — may soon be developed.

Tuesday night (December 13, 7:30, Town Hall), the Zoning Board of Appeals will review a request for variances. Property owner William Taylor hopes to construct a 2-story office building on the small piece of land, which ever since I can remember has been a weed- and brush-filled occasional parking lot for trucks.

The office building would include Taylor’s law office, and other tenants.

The bad news: Parking will include a deck — accessible through a new entrance off Roseville Road. That means even more cars will soon fly through the least-observed red light in town.

The good news: It’s not a bank.
