Habitat neighborhood takes shape in Rockland
ROCKLAND — Two houses have been framed in and a foundation has been completed for a third home in what will be a Habitat for Humanity neighborhood.
The formal groundbreaking for the residential development occurred Nov. 6.
Philbrick Commons will eventually consist of 12 one and two-bedroom homes of between 650 and 850 square feet.
Tia Anderson, executive director of Midcoast Habitat for Humanity, said at the groundbreaking, that Habitat was excited to begin the “pocket neighborhood” that offers affordable home ownership to a diverse population of veterans, seniors, middle-aged singles and couples and small families.
The street is located off Route 1 along the busy Camden Street stretch.
