[/caption]Early last January, the far western Greene County mountaintop town of Ashland saw its firehouse/town hall burn to the ground by dark of night. Now, according to a new report in the Daily Mail, a new facility is underway... not quite as big as everyone originally wanted, but better than what was. And, combined with work to complete a new New York City-funded sewer system, the first signs of real progress the town (which supplied the Farmers Museum in Cooperstown with many of its historic structures) has seen in some time. It's a nicely-written piece, as usual, from Mike Ryan.
