INDY ARTICLE ABOUT GREENBRIDGE

As I was going around talking to residents about this issue, so, it seems was Joe Schwartz, staff writer at the Triangle's Independent newspaper. Last week's cover story highlighted the controversy around Greenbridge. He did a good job of gathering the range of opinions, although I was disappointed by the way he presented Tim Toben's comments as fact and the comments of community activists and citizens as opinion. Could have been a little more investigation into the claims of Toben. Also, he might have better highlighted the vibrant community that remains in the neighborhood and spent a little more time reporting on some of the proactive efforts at community preservation currently in place through EmPOWERment, St. Joseph, Hargraves, the Jackson Center, etc. Might have thought about not starting with the somewhat glorified story of Greenbridge's inception, as well. Just some thoughts, though.
