* What the EPA calls "the greenest street on the East Coast and possibly the
U.S." is right in Hyattsville's backyard. 

 

* As the EYA development on Route 1 nears completion, three separate
projects are being considered that would dwarf it. They're clustered around
Northwestern High School and the Mall at Prince Georges; find out what's
going where.

 

* That butter churn is worth *how* much? A visit to the "Antiques
Roadshow"-style event hosted by the Hyattsville Preservation Association.

 

* A tale of two traffic studies: Before the much-discussed Sabra, Wang was a
gleam in a councilmember's eye, a grassroots traffic study was done at no
cost to the city. And it came up with very different results. 

 

* Hyattsville has 23 Certified Wildlife Habitats, as designated by the
National Wildlife Federation. Find out how your backyard can be number 24.

 

* Photos from Spookyfest and Cyclocross: is that your child on the cover? 

 

* Longtime residents remember the Mighty Mo Drive-in Restaurant, Peoples
Drug Store (where the post office is now), and an open-air Prince George's
Plaza. 

 

These stories and more, in the November issue of the Hyattsville Life &
Times. Let us know what you think!
