  • Main Squeeze under new ownership— A smooth blend of old, new

    Daniel Pearson planted a low-maintenance cover crop of violets in the backyard of his Lawson Place residence.

Pearson worries herbicides will be used to kill the vegetation, which is out of compliance with the property owners, Greene Metropolitian Housing Authority. (Photo by Megan Bachman)
