Mary Hill walks around her Hobson Village neighborhood in Suffolk Va. on a warm spring day. Recurrent flooding, land erosion, and septic problems are just some of the constant issues for Hill and many other residents.
Newly developed and large-scale housing complexes and the expansion of a developing city have caused issues for the original residents of the neighborhoods, whose family members have lived there for generations. Septic issues, stormwater runoff, overflowing ditches and flooding, shoreline erosion, and water accessibility are just some of the issues worsened by the new developments surrounding this historically African-American neighborhood.

As I’m taking my daily run on Clove Road, while listening to my blood stirring, energy pumping music mix, I end up passing by a banner advertising a new development called "The Club at Clove Lakes Park". This name intrigues me because it makes me think of a community for the elite. Still trying to keep the juices flowing as I'm jogging in place reading this advertisement, I tell myself why not pass by the welcome center to check out what this is all about. After all, if I like what I hear it will make for great content on my beloved blog.
One of the friendly sales reps named Michael gave me a run down of the project and showed me the welcome center. I come to find out that this is an upscale 24-unit age-exclusive project for active adults 55 and older. They brand themselves as “Staten Island’s Premier Over 55 Boutique Condominium”, which makes sense and goes along with my initial assumption based on just reading the name of the new development.
I think these guys really have something here because this is the first community on the north shore of Staten Island targeted towards this demographic. While this project is definitely aimed at the upscale market with a profusion of finishes, amenitites and services (lots of marble, granite, brand name appliances and fixtures, pools, fitness room, sauna, private rooms for all types of special events, library, game room, virtual concierge, etc.), it provides an alternative for Staten Islanders who no longer want to maintain their old homes, and just want to live peacefully and joyfully in their own little world. Michael said the offerring plans have recently been approved and all the amenties are finalized, so I'm interested to see what happens at this site.
I asked Michael, with absolutely no personal intentions in mind :) "what are the chances you guys will develop a community like this for people in their 30's and over?" He said, "hey, you never know...we make things happen". At this point my body has cooled down, since I spent more time than I would have liked talking to Michael...no offense Mike you were very kind, but I got to keep the groove going. I'll make it my duty to my fellow readers to follow the progress of The Club and any cool new stuff worth blogging about.
My understanding is that there is a large development under way and it will include what is to be known as Tully Park centered on the ruins of Tully Church and Graveyard. According to the developers Tully Park will be 22 acres in size, roughly the same as Dublin’s St. Stephen’s Green Park. Being the flagship park of Cherrywood, Tully Park will serve as a facility for the entire development, containing everyday walking and cycling routes and providing environmentally-positive connections. Lehaunstown Lane and the existing hedgerows and tree lines will divide the Park naturally into four zones:
A Heritage Zone with Tully Church & Graveyard, High Crosses and their environs, with paths to explore the monuments.
A Biodiversity Zone with lots of native wildflowers, shrubs, trees and informal paths to wander.
A Play Zone that includes a large play area for children, a skate park and an amphitheater area for open-air plays or performances.
A Passive Zone with lawns meadows and wooded areas make up the majority here, with winding paths and seating areas.
The first part of the redevelopment of the former gasworks site. Difficult to judge until more of the project is completed. The use of banded brickwork and timber cladding nicely reflects the old dock context.

This campus is currently being developed and the project is somewhat behind schedule.
The Central & East Quads for the DIT Grangegorman campus will accommodate academic activities and facilities required for a total of ten schools from the College of Sciences & Health, College of Engineering & Built Environment and the College of Arts & Tourism. These schools and their associated academic, teaching and specialist facilities will be grouped within the Central Quad to maximise the benefits and efficiencies to DIT from locating together related disciplines and functions.

New condo development site
This is in an unincorporated area of Wood County outside Parkersburg, West Virginia, in a development called "Emerson Commons" that has been awarded a sweetheart tax deal by the county government. For years there have been local news reports that "a Menard's is maybe supposed to be going in somewhere up in here sometime" but people do not believe it; and they do not particularly want to drive all the way out here to shop at Menard's; and they regard the project as a corrupt transfer of the county tax burden away from wealthy land developers and onto poor and middle-wage people.
-----------------------
Near Parkersburg, West Virginia, on December 23rd, 2018, on Emerson Commons Boulevard south of Emerson Avenue (West Virginia Route 68).
