Abstract

The dying community of Grand Lake Stream is divided by the desire to retain its wilderness heritage with the need to develop an economy for younger families. A $650,000 grant to develop affordable housing and community facilities has residents concerned that changes will hurt their simple lifestyle in the Maine North Woods.
