Bully Pulpit

Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Development is good fit for Danbury, officials say

A shopping center to be built on 10 acres is first phase of project known as Crawford Village

(Winston-Salem Journal) -
Town officials say that preliminary plans for Danbury’s first commercial development fit the area’s small-town character.

Buildings and parking lots in the proposed development, on about 100 acres across from the Stokes County Government Center in Danbury, would mostly be hidden from the road by trees.

“What they’re planning on doing there across from the government center is truly something that will complement the town and set the tone for the future of the town,” Mayor Jane Priddy-Charleville said. “The design is everything that I would like to see if there has to be development on that land.”
