Abstract
Kara Wilbur started as a planner and then moved into real estate development to help build the kinds of places she was hearing about over and over that people wanted, but that few developers were building. Wilbur has been part of efforts to build affordable, multifamily housing in places that haven't had new housing in many years, such as in Madison and Rumford- and in places where additional housing is needed, such as Newcastle, Brunswick, and Yarnouth.
