To the editor:

I would like to congratulate all entities that have felt the need to work toward what is rapidly becoming the new Wellington Heights neighborhood.

My wife and I raised a family on the edges of Wellington Heights. I love all the wonderfully 'classic” old homes in the area and so appreciate the diversity of everyone that feels a need to maintain this neighborhood.

What entities like The Affordable Housing Network and the true neighbors here have contributed to this 'project” is heart warming and beyond inspiring. Efforts such as these truly bring confidence back into the formula.
