Mixed Reactions towards Bridgehampton Commons

Hard to believe, but 2022 marked the 50th anniversary of Bridgehampton Commons.  Esperanza and Irwin dive head first into the writer Tim Ferguson's article "When A Shopping Mall Came To The Hamptons".  One could argue that the Commons served as a metaphor for all the changes on the east end in the past half century.  A shift in demographics, land use, development, the benefits of amenities and convenience at the cost of suburbanization.  Are we grateful for it's presence?  Was it the beginning of the end?  Was there  a grand anniversary celebration?  We discuss all of that, and more!
