Riverwalk Construction has begun.

The Riverwalk construction has begun.

This project will complete the sidewalk from the Deep Harbour Marina to the Trenton Street pedestrian gate.  Work will continue, weather permitting for two to three weeks,


Much work has been done behind the scenes to ensure that the "walkway" is constructed to industry standards. More work must be done to develop acceptable terms for the management of the riverwalk.

Background
In the original negotiations between the City of Cambridge and Beazer, the issue of access to the waterfront resulted in an easement called the "Riverwalk".  The original concept was to continue the walkway from Cedar St. to Sailwinds. It is doubtful that it will ever happen at least in the near future.

Funding
Funding for the Deep Harbour Riverwalk was the result of a lawsuit that resulted in an $80,000 settlement. In the same lawsuit, the city collected approximately $250,000 in unpaid taxes, interest, and other compensation.

Funding for the maintenance, including snow removal, will be entirely the responsibility of the Deep Harbour Community.  Once built, the city has no responsibility for their easement.  We own it including the liability.

What's next?
The DHMA Board of Directors will be communicating with the city through our legal counsel.
Our first priority is managing access to our property. Limiting access to daylight hours is a minimal requirement to mitigate our risk,

Each gate was split at their midpoint weldment.  The gate motors were not damaged but will be checked. Until repairs are complete, the gates will remain open.

Due to an "unexplained" complication at the factory, our new carpeting will not be shipped until February 11, 2020.

So stand-by. 
We hope that installation will begin sometime in late February or early March.

Upcoming events: Carpeting, Meetings

Merry Christmas 

Happy Holidays from your Board of Directors,
Shirley, Alan, Clara Mae, Sylvia & George

winter past.
Carpet Installation
All residents should be aware that new carpeting will be installed in mid-January.
The tentative date to start work is the week of January 13, 2020.

This will create disruption as the old carpet is removed and hauled out and the new carpet is laid down.
You can expect some difficulty walking through the hallways.
One of the elevators will be in service mode. So, only one elevator will be available for residents during the day.
Of course, you will need to remove any ornaments that may interfere with the installation.

We will announce more details of the plan so, residents can prepare for whatever upsets this work will cause.

Other Projects
The board is considering improving lighting in the lobby by replacing fixtures with more efficient LEDs.
Also, improving exterior lighting in the front of the building.
The board will also consider upgrading our camera surveillance system to include exterior cameras.

Future Meetings: Note that some meeting days are on Thursdays.
All meetings will be at Sentry’s office and are open to unit owners. Dates are subject to change.
