Assembly Square Land Swap Discussion June 17
Mayor Curtatone, Rep. Toomey, and Aldermen Pero and Roche and Senator  
Jehlen invite you to a public meeting about the proposed land swap at  
Assembly Square.  The on-site meeting will be Tuesday, June 17 at  
6:30 on the DCR pathway across from Christmas Tree Shops at Assembly  
Square.  In case of inclement weather, a tent will be provided.

Federal Realty Investment Trust will present development plans, and  
the exchange of a parcel currently owned by the Department of  
Conservation and Recreation for a slightly larger strip along the  
river which FRIT will develop into DCR parkland.  FRIT will also  
discuss access to Draw 7 Park, and proposals for easements.   
Legislation to accomplish the land swap is currently before the  
legislature.  Community members are invited to learn about the  
process and plans for community investment and mitigation.  There  
will be a chance to ask questions and raise concerns.
