GREAT BARRINGTON â The Planning Board has approved the conversion of a former Great Barrington nursing home into rental apartments over the objections of neighbors.
After a marathon meeting last week, the board voted 5-0 in support of a project that will create 30 studio, one- and two-bedroom units in the former Great Barrington Nursing and Rehabilitation Center off Route 23/ Maple Avenue.
