New construction in Alton Bay

TownieRinker27 · 12-12-2023, 06:00 PM

That construction boom in Alton Bay sounds a lot like what happened in my neighbourhood last summer. I was actually working on adding a deck to my own house at the time. Getting the permits was a real headache, so I can imagine the process for those larger projects must be even more complex, especially close to the shoreline.

For my deck project, I had to rent a couple of heavy-duty trucks to bring in the timber and other materials. Those trucks were lifesavers, considering the amount of stuff we needed. It was my first time handling such a big DIY project, and seeing those big trucks pull up with all the supplies made it all feel very real. It definitely gave me a new appreciation for the scale of these larger construction projects around the lake.
