Growing up in Brunswick in the 1980s and 1990s was a great time to be a kid. Just down the street was an open field near a small farm stand. Cars, a great deal of them, generally drove on by as they headed for Bath Road or Maine Street. This field, while not very large, at about three acres was noticeable with large pine trees in its center and its wildlife. There is a plan being considered by the town’s Planning Board to remove the trees and vegetation, the animals and the tranquility. In its place will be 16 single family homes and garages. Sometimes a well-intentioned development can be just too much for the surrounding area. ~ Jonathan Crimmins
