Letter to the editor: Building too tall

To the editor:

Eight stories? Really? Does the city really want the tallest building in town to be a hotel/grocery store? Does the city really want to remove the parking-friendly lot that is in constant use and gives easy access to so many businesses? Must we always succumb to more development? Massachusetts Street has its own vibe, and Vermont Street does as well with its churches, post office and library. An eight-story commercial building would change the Vermont Street vibe beyond recognition.
