“If the buildings fit into the landscape and are somewhat separated from the battlefield, why not? I like the Institute and that it does offer housing. Why not build if they can keep the appeal of the battlefield?” —Sierk Poetting, Princeton

“If you can see the buildings from the road and they detract from the battlefield, I don’t think that they should build.”  —Matt Trowbridge, Pennington

“Do they really have to?” —Roger Crevier, Princeton

“I think it’s a bad idea; the park is too important in American history. The most important part of the battle was the counterattack that took place precisely on the spot where the Institute wants to build housing.”

—Dan Thompson, Princeton

“I feel uncomfortable with housing next to the battlefield, as it’s a historical site and building could have some future effect on the battlefield.” —Rick Snyder, Highland Park
