Old Building Singing a New Tune

        The ribbon was cut today on two housing projects on Stone Street in downtown Watertown. 
         The Music Center Apartments are a three unit house on the corner which at one time housed a music school.  Next door is the former Social Security office which is now a dozen or so small apartments for the homeless.

Music Center Apartments

      The projects were overseen by Neighbors of Watertown.  It's a nice plus for downtown.
        While for the homeless the small studio and one bedroom units are what many a single person of any age would like in an urban setting. Too bad the marketplace can't support that kind of housing.
       I have always though the former Madonna Home  up the street would be great for that kind of housing. Not everyone needs townhouse villas or garden apartments when first starting out in life.
