When Hugh Chisholm traveled this area in the late 1800's, he recognized the awesome power of what was then called Pennacook falls. He built a power plant to tap the power of the falls and all other infrastructure was built around it.
As the population of the town swelled to build and sustain the infrastructure, new housing was desperately needed. From this need, Strathglass Park was born. This beautiful housing complex was an advanced architectural design at the time. The buildings on the outskirts of this oval shaped park faced each other, creating a feeling of community within the park. Hugh Chisholm clearly understood the importance of creating a feeling of community for the people that came here. The RFP is thrilled that residents have formed the Strathglass Park Association and are working to revitalize this beautiful and historical landmark

I agree that it is a great thing that a committee has been formed to attempt and bring back this development to the status it deserves. Hopefully, resistance will be minimal with the landlords that do not live in the area and the tenants that do not have any ambition other than to live there. If the covenants are not abided by and there are no reprocussions, then all will be for not. Good Luck.
