City Planning



Here is the official seal of the city of Manchester. I am sorry it has been so long between posts, but summer just sort of disappeared. This post is about the setup of Manchester, because Las Cruces, where I live, is set up so badly that the public bus system will never be able to stay on time, no matter how the routes are changed, and I wondered if Manchester had the same problems.
Here is an excerpt from an article about a coming new mall in Manchester. Wonder if it will cause traffic problems.
Outlet mall on its way

Merrimack – Shoppers just got a step closer to getting an outlet mall in the southern end of the state.

The planning board last night unanimously approved a conditional-use permit for a 135-store Chelsea Property Group outlet mall on 170 forested acres on Industrial Drive, near Exit 10 of the Everett Turnpike.

The $100 million project is expected to take 18 months to build.
