Hudson Faces Major Development Debate

By Hilary McQuilkin on Friday, January 20, 2006.

Hudson, New Hampshire – just outside Nashua – is on the brink of change.

The nearly 50 year-old public Green Meadows golf course at the south end of town is slated to be sold and developed into an upscale retail center.

Residents found out about the proposed development only a few months ago and it has caused quite a bit of concern.

NHPR correspondent Hilary McQuilkin stopped by and prepared this report.
