Was originally supposed to be an Amazon hq. Sucks, it was a fun and cheap course

A target distro? What do you mean? Literally a distribution center for Target?

Yes, quite literally. Mother Earth is fucking ecstatic, not that golf courses help resemble nature much. However at least they’re habitat’s for some ecology. Love to know the emissions this place will put out, combined with the added emissions from all the extra MHT flights coming in with more shitty sku’s to put out on these box stores brick n mortars

Admittedly, the only things I like about golf are the shirts and the carts, but goday’aaaam, 36 holes and it’s been sold? Safe to say it’s not because golf courses are too expensive to maintain/run (given the other courses this family owns).

Warehouses or condos…better yet, warehouses with condos on the top floor!

Best I can do is automated warehouses that don't provide jobs but do increase property values, and thus rent and taxes, substantially. And maybe a Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aid, all right next to each other.

That area was a little slice of golf paradise. 36 holes with the driving range on site and the golf and ski facilities there too. Such a shame, but such is life.

I’m starting to think I’ll be dealing with the same crap in a decade at most. Didn’t move far enough north.

Sucks, great courses, and convenient. Supposedly after Amazon bailed it was purchased by Target for distribution/logistics site. Good luck to the traffic shitshow for Hudson residents.

Most of the traffic is going to be heading back over the bridge. Hudson won’t see much extra traffic from this.

Trucks have to get to the distro center somehow - unless they’re planning on building a new bridge over the Merrimack there, it’s going to make traffic worse on Lowell Rd.

For a very short distance to the exit 2 bridge, where the road is already quite wide. It's a fairly ideal location.

It’s a mile from route 3, across the old sagamore bridge, to the golf course. About 1000’ of that is Hudson.

I’m aware of that. I’m also aware of how traffic backs up on that bridge in the evening rush hour. It’s a small section of road but it’s one of the busiest segments of road in town.

Don’t worry, the contingent in town that really wants to finish the decades-old circumferential highway project is loving this.

Obviously the owners got an offer on the land that they simply couldn't refuse.

I went there for a weeklong golf camp when I was 13.

That’s too bad. It’s hard enough finding a tee time in this state, this will make it even worse.

It's not like we don't need them.

That's what brings stuff like this new distribution center. As the population climbs, the facilities serving that population need to increase as well. Goodbye open land, hello retail support for a growing population. Not great for the handful of residents that live near there, but it does have easy highway access.

No, actually, the buyer wants to build several large warehouses (1mil+ sqft)
