Mayhem & Murder on Lower Road – 1896

Curious passersby wonder what the old stone foundation was at the start of the new Eddy Bay Trail on Lower Road.  We did too, after we uncovered it this winter as part of the trail-clearing.  Some on-line sleuthing from our advisor Mark Robinson of The Compact of Cape Cod Conservation Trusts determined it was the […]

The daughters each […]

BCT’s 40th Year Annual Report

Spring 2024 Newsletter

Sometimes the right place and the right time come together. In a community where housing is in short supply, this is indeed good news. Brewster’s zoning in the 1980’s established large building lots that slowed the unmanageable growth of the time but are now impeding the development of sorely needed workforce housing.
