Anybody know what's going on along Wigard Street near the radio towers? Walked by and it looked like there might be new houses or something - a road, too...
There's so much open space around Upper Roxborough. That's why I moved here - hoping it stays that way.
Like the old reservoirs. They are amazing! But I'm told they could be developed too.
Thoughts?

Not sure---where are there radio towers on Wigard Avenue?

if you're going up Domino Lane from Umbria towards Ridge, you'll notice radio towers on the right side. The trash transfer station is on the left. The radio towers on the right are only some of the ones you see from the expressway. The rest of them are to your left, between the trash transfer station and Wigard Ave.

Wow! I've lived in Roxborough over 40 years and I've never noticed that there were towers between the trash station and Wigard Avenue. I've only ever paid attention to the ones on the other side of Domino Lane. How many radio towers are there? Aren't the vast majority TV towers?

Sorry, folks, maybe I mean TV towers, not radio. I don't know - they are just honkin' big towers
But nestled under them is a really nice, quiet neighborhood (Dearnley, Wigard, etc.)

You can see the towers from Ridge. They are right behind the little strip at Domino & Ridge. They aren't as tall as the ones below Ivy Ridge.

The towers above Domino are fun to explore around; it is a sort of wooded area with random trails through it, with old smashed up cars here and there

I heard that sewer lines are going in at the end of Wigard Ave. I have not heard anthing about new homes.

Developers may be building new homes underground. They've gone every other place but there, I wouldn't put it past them.
