    We really enjoyed walking about the Quad after moving our son back to school. Well worth the wait!

    The new Quad is beautiful, but I’m not sure how a wide expanse of grass that is regularly saturated with toxic chemicals to keep the grass green fits in with the concepts of “environmentally sustainable,” no less “safer.”
