#FreshPond has a public 9 hole golf course run by the City of #CambridgeMA

The course is almost 100 years old, and Boston area land usage has changed significantly since then. Some people believe that having a golf course this close to Boston is a critical recreation facility. Some people believe that the ecological impact of golf courses is too high, and that they are a byproduct of a different era.

As we think about changes we need to make to mitigate #Climate change and serve the changing needs of residents, I wonder:

What should the City of Cambridge do with the golf course over the next 25 years? #Boston #MAPoli

@knizer If it remains owned by the city of cambridge, housing would be amazing. Imagine housing not owned by a billionaire extracting money from the city.
@Craigp Housing is harder and harder to find, hedge funds already control so much of the city. #EatTheRich
