Melissa Martin's Love Letter to the Village
“I love the shape of the place; I love the green of its ceiling, pierced by the spires of aging churches and the battered red bricks of old post-war apartments. They’re mostly condos now. Because the Village has changed, but not for the worse. When I moved into the Village, it seemed most people here were like me: young, teens and early 20s, out for a party, buying pot at the Circle and mix at Shoppers and moving on into the arterial back lanes.”
