The Morning After

It seems pretty fitting that the front page of the BCCT this morning portrays Morrisville so similarly in two completely unrelated stories. Morrisville this morning awakens to find that it is nothing more than a dump. It's a place where dead bodies are dumped for convenience, and it's a place where progress goes to die.

R.I.P. Gateway. I doubt that most other developers would have stayed around long enough to endure the abuse that PJP has taken for the past two years. That building should be ready to rent by now. Instead the community that should have celebrated the new business remains sitting there in the quiet dead splendor of a long interred and long forgotten cemetery. A place where nothing ever happens. And nothing ever will. There's Morrisville's ignominious future. Graveyard to the region.

Remember the names of the council members who want Morrisville to remain dead: David Rivella, Rita Ledger, Kathryn Panzitta, Jane Burger, Steven Worob, Eileen Dreisbach.

All six of you: What's next? Like your brethren on the school board, what are you doing now to improve Morrisville?

The Phoenix Rising? Gateway Presentation TONIGHT

Here's a chance to do some good for the entire borough. Come on out TONIGHT! and support the Gateway project. The DRJTBA will sell the needed land to the Morrisville EDC, so Dan Jones can make his long awaited official presentation.

Please come on out and support Dan Jones; Penn Jersey Realty; the Gateway Center; and/or Morrisville. All of them are deserving of your support.

Hi Everyone,

Many of you may be aware that Dan has been working very hard for the last 2 years to get past lots of Morrisville red tape so that he and his partners can build an office building (The Gateway Center) at the foot of the Trenton Makes Bridge. Dan really believes in this project and knows that a structure of this sort in Morrisville would bring good tax relief to the residents and much needed customers to the businesses of Morrisville. This Tuesday evening at 7:30 in the Morrisville Borough Hall Dan will make yet another presentation to the Council. He would LOVE to be able to show community support for this project. So, if any of you who have an interest in the future of Morrisville could attend this meeting Tuesday night it would put a big smile on Dan's face and make a difficult job much easier. The presentation should begin right at 7:30 and take about an hour.

Thanks so much!
Jennifer Jones
