PLYMOUTH – Going green is becoming a tall order as wind turbines pop up along urban and not so urban landscapes. The Stop & Shop Supermarket Company LLC is hoping to add to the show with a wind turbine off Exit 6.

After all the hoopla Kingston’s turbines have generated, it remains to be seen how such a visible turbine will be received in America’s Hometown.

The Stop & Shop Supermarket Company LLC submitted plans for a 275-foot wind turbine behind the Stop & Shop Supermarket at 129 Samoset St. Jan. 10. The wind turbine is sited approximately 600 feet from Algonquin Heights apartment complex and 962 feet from the nearest home on Westerly Road.
