Lincoln, along with the right of way, would not fit with the character of the neighborhood.

Lincoln Avenue, would be presented again at the July 6, 2004 Village Board meeting.

Rather, by selling the units as condominiums, they would not be cost prohibitive, and would appeal to first-time homebuyers.
