• Spy Longform Interview: A Case Study in Affordable Housing with Fello's Ross Benincasa (talbotspy.org) — Affordable housing nonprofit Fello is driving several major projects in Easton, including Port Street Commons and Easton Crossing, aimed at creating mixed-income, mixed-ability homes for local families. In a new 18‑minute interview, senior leader Ross Benincasa explains how the group is responding to fast-rising rents, why infill development matters, and how long-term ownership could stabilize housing across the Mid‑Shore.
