A $2.4 Billion Bridge Is Coming to Cape Cod. Their Homes Will Be Seized to Build It.

Joan and Marc Hendel were still unpacking their newly built house on Cape Cod on March 3, when their dream of homeownership burst.
That day, an employee from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation hand-delivered a letter informing the couple that their house and at least 10 others in Bourne's Round Hill neighborhood, along the Cape Cod Canal, would be taken by eminent domain to make way for the state's largest public works project in a generation: a new bridge connecting mainland Massachusetts and the Cape.
