A new website is up sparked by the City's ten-year budgeting of zero funds for capital improvements in Davis Square through 2027. The site details repairs immediately needed, with pictures and cost estimates for repairs.

The 62-page, illustrated punch list, developed by architect Chris Iwerks, a Davis Sq resident, is also available at:

The group's self-description follows:
"DavisNow.org focuses on fixing problems now. It does not address the City’s long-term plans for Davis Square, such as increasing building heights, altering intersections, or completely replacing sidewalks. This is a much more modest scope and cost proposal. It’s just what’s needed to renew the elements we already have.
"We have created a punch-list book of the many issues afflicting Davis Square, which can be viewed here:

"We plan to have a community meeting... to discuss what our next steps should be and how to partner with city officials to fund these needed repairs."

There should be a list of the people and groups who are behind it and who are funding it.
Hard to believe that $0 is budgeted for DS over the next 10 years (assuming that is accurate).
