The land was leased by Exxon Mobil for like 60 years. The ground is just filled with toxic dirt and fumes from petroleum. Sapperstein (the developer) was extremely limited on what they could build on the land. If you look at the parking lot light poles when you’re there they actually double as vents for the ground. They have caps at the top that allow toxic gasses to dissipate.

Omg tf.... Thank you for the info, wow. Does the brownfield end at Boston Street, or...? All those apartments they're building, hope it's not going to be some low level Love Canal shit. 🥴
