The Eno has been a source of peace and serenity throughout my entire life growing up in Durham. Some of my
earliest school memories were field trips to West Point and the grist mill. As an adult, I have spent years hiking
the trails at West Point with my dog, Beula. I have played with friends in the water, attended the festival for the
Eno, fallen in love with my now partner and found solace in the quiet of the woods along the river.
I am a realtor and I am aware that Durham does need more affordable housing, but the destruction of this
beautiful natural resource and community gathering place is not the answer. Additionally, this developer has no
regard for the well-being of Durham and the numerous ecosystems that exist here. They do not plan to provide
affordable housing, or serve anyone other than their own selfish interests with this project. A new housing
development can be built over and over again wherever land is available. The beauty of undisturbed nature and
the importance of this river is not duplicable.
I plead that you put and end to the clearing and development of this land.
Most sincerely,
Marie Brockenbrough, Durham resident since 1988
