The building boom continues on Island, which has its pluses and minuses. The main plus is it fuels the local economy (and I get to see the cutting edge house\/landscape designs, materials, craftmanship, etc. :-). The main minus is the disturbance it causes the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
There used to be an unwritten rule to pare back exterior construction in the denser districts of Nantucket, like the Residential Old Historic (ROH) district, June 15 – Labor Day; it was common courtesy. Now, there are exterior sites going full bore all over these areas. I understand people want their homes done and there were lost work hours due to weather this past winter\/spring so there were delays, but, regardless, they are missing this season anyways. Should there be a Town ordinance regarding exterior construction June 15 – Labor Day? debatable; I like small government, free markets and by no means depriving someone from making a living. Should there be common courtesy? Always. <\/p>\n
The market continues to be strong.<\/p>\n
