Yesterday I walked around what will soon be the best neighborhood in Rutland – the Northwest neighborhood. It was the perfect day for a walk – sunny and a balmy 48 degrees. I had the great company of my friend Elizabeth, and we toured almost the entire neighborhood. I was struck by some of the regal old buildings hidden away on side streets. We saw the community garden, an adorable little store and loads of potential! Here are some photos.
A gorgeous duplex
A giant garden in the middle of the city
I think this place might be haunted
Maple Village – A National Church Residence – apparently providing low income housing for seniors
Amazing house! Anyone know the story behind it?
Surely they’re cleaning out so as to beautify the neighborhood

Rooftop solar!
Great potential
Giant potential!
