Linden

Certainly the process of road construction can cause inconvenience and a test of patience — especially when it happens in your own front yard. Earlier this year, construction began to convert Howes Street from a one-way road to a two-way road. This was the early stage of the Mason Street Corridor project.

Certainly the process was an inconvenience and it was taking a long time due to a wet spring. But the creative team at Linden decided that instead of swearing at the workers, why not thank them for making Fort Collins a better place? Why not invite them on the porch for a real coffee break? Why not treat them with the same respect we ourselves would demand?
