Housing mix on Humboldt Road farmland

Green Bay

Summary

The comp plan change opens roughly farmland at Humboldt and Woodside to a blend of single-family homes, townhomes, and apartments. Supporters call it smart, context-sensitive growth on the city's edge; Ald. Grant worries about traffic on Woodside Road and an already heavy concentration of apartments nearby.
