Looking Ahead It’s been a month now since construction halted for the winter, but March and the resumption of work for the final few months of Middlebury’s downtown project—the project’s contractual end date is Tuesday, August 17—are just around the corner. With that in mind, I thought we could briefly look ahead at some of the activities I’ll be covering in our community updates this year. First and foremost is the completion of our two new public parks in central downtown.
