As many of you know, the Town of Cortlandt has expressed an interest in building "transit oriented development housing" at their train station. And ON JANAURY 12TH, there was a massive fire at the asphalt/concrete plant adjacent to it. (You can read and see more about it at EverythingCroton: LOHUD---ABOUT THAT MASSIVE MONTROSE FIRE)
