SPRINGFIELD — Faced with a shortage of available land in the North End, the city is taking a unique approach to find property for a new German Gerena Community School.
The city is searching for a five-acre parcel, preferably located within a mile of the existing school on Birnie Avenue. Touring the neighborhood and using a drone has netted no results so far, said Peter Garvey, director of capital asset construction for the city.
