Thanks Export.. I’m curious what an eco friendly cottage will look like.. I guess this is better than the property being sold to the Hasidic and it becoming another housing development like Kiryas Joel.. it would break my heart to see high density multi family dwellings there..

It would have only be slightly more ridiculous had they thrown a harness raceway into the mix!!!
