Keeping Their Word
A month ago, on October 19, Gossips reported about the porticoes on the new Stewart's building which did not match the ones shown in the rendering and in the elevation drawing presented to the Planning Board. It was on the basis of these visual representations that the Planning Board had given site plan approval, and neither showed the porticoes as the "lumpy blocks of styrofoam" they turned out to be.
At that time, Gossips also reported that Walter Chatham, chair of the Planning Board, had met with Chuck Marshall, real estate representative for Stewart's, to discuss the issue of the porticoes, and Marshall had agreed that what was built was not what had been approved and promised to rebuild the porticoes "like the picture." He said the work to correct the design would be staggered between the two porticoes.

This afternoon, Gossips received word from a reader in the neighborhood that a thinner portico was being framed out.

Galloway has shorn us of any expectation that the elevations you present are the ones you actually build. Amazing when it does happen we applaud the developers for "keeping their word". Appears to me a baseline legal obligation to build what our community approves. Kudos to Walter & co. for doing their duty.
