http://econewbedford.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

The center store has been developed for a limited food service - such as gourmet coffee and ice cream plus soups and salads - see previous posting. Throughout construction of the townhouses two commercial spaces remained vacant but always active with construction. Materials were worked on here and stored here.

eco New Bedford: Urban Oasis
http://econewbedford.blogspot.com/2012/08/urban-oasis.html
Wednesday, August 22, 2012. This past Spring Thomas Pelletier joined in the ecoNewBedford project taking on outdoor maintenance. Since Thomas is also a tremendous landscape creative, this included construction of productive container gardens growing food for his family and surplus going to the Center Cafe. We're inspired having fresh herbs growing out back, and have added seating in the garden. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Art of Construction in the New Economy. Subscribe To Eco NewBedford.

Tuesday, September 28, 2010. Building EnergyStar homes for a rental market is a great step towards sustainability, but performance is a major matter.

eco New Bedford: Center Cafe Opens
http://econewbedford.blogspot.com/2011/06/center-cafe-opens.html
Thursday, June 23, 2011. Last week the dream of a neighborhood Cafe on this busy corner was finally realized! As written about in earlier posts. The Cafe gets its vibe from modern frugal simplicity and the local residents and visitors who fill it.

Open morning to night. See www.center-cafe.com. New Bedford Every...
