So far the response has been a bunch of thumbs up, a couple of "they don't even take care of the sidewalks," and a couple of "they won't because they can't get salt in the river."

Because they are now the only Detroit-style pizza in the area...? And they are crushing it?

I loved their Neapolitan style pizza and I don’t live in the area anymore but I’m highly confused why they switched up like that. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

The Vandenberg Esplanade was plowed on Monday morning after the snow hit Sunday night. It's not a very long path but certainly a nice place to walk/run

Maybe around Umass Lowell since those sidewalks should be cleared for students

I started the idea of plowing the Riverwalk (Fox Hall to Memorial Auditorium) as a post on the FB group Lowell Live Feed. There's a couple of City Councilors who follow the dialogues there so we'll see if it gets any traction (pun unavoidable).
Worst case scenario: we could get together and shovel it.

I'm the person who suggested Minuteman and even on that I wasn't entirely on the money. Reports following the recent storm are that it was kind of spotty. Sorry.

My understanding is that the cemeteries are plowed. If you want a flat one, Edson is great. If you want hills, Lowell Cemetery or St. Patrick’s.

Following as I almost busted my ass a few times yesterday running on the road after some snow.
A great paved trail I have been using to run is the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail. It is NOT plowed in the winter unfortunately but is great otherwise. Welcome to Lowell!

Went there once and laughed at how overpriced it is.

Zesty. Although it's up the road in Chelmsford

That sounds incredible. I’ll have to get that asap. George’s Pizza moved locations when I was in my early teens but then closed probably when I was 18 and I’ve been looking for that amazing “Hamburg and onion” Pizza ever since. Nashua House of Pizza gets something close but it’s still not George’s. So this special at LHOP might just be the best impression. THANK YOUUUUU!

Expensive: Max and Leo’s in Chelmsford (wood oven pizza - very good!)
Not expensive - but really good: Eliu’s Hole in the Wall on the corner of Fletcher and Butterfield in Lowell. (Great hand stretched pizzas plus yummy tostones and empanadas)

Crispy square is easily the best pizza available in the area. You should go try it. Phoenix rising was good, but this is better.

Pretty much but it also has “hamburg” on there as my family used to call it. The sauce is an old recipe and the pizza is actually way smaller than you’d think for the price but crispy and tall but doesn’t feel thick. This Sun Article goes into the history a bit
Edited to add: I really want some now, but my family doesn’t even live in Lowell anymore. Guess I’ll have to see if anyone’s throwing a 20-year for LHS class of ‘03!

What's on the special? Is it basically a supreme pizza with roni/olives/onions/bell peppers/sausage? Or do they kick it up somehow? Based on the picture of the mushroom in their header and the extra $5 I'm guessing they must do it up nice.
If I wasn't so intrigued by your suggestion I would have recommended a drive down to Westford to get some Diggy's Detroit Style; plenty of exotic 'za combos there and they're not the cheapest game in town

Most pizza places in town are around $16 for a large cheese.
Tremonte on Palmer St has pizza on the menu. Depending on the night, they either come out perfect or a little well done/burnt, it’s good to watch other pizzas come out before you order to decide for yourself. I’m a fan of their Fromaggi pizza. The bar here is always great.
Crispy Square Pizza Co (formerly Phoenix Rising) is a food truck. They’re at Navigation Brewing on Western Ave most Friday nights. They do Detroit style pizza that I haven’t had it since the rebrand but I liked it when they were doing Neapolitan style pizzas.
For a more traditional carry out/pizza joint place: Tessi’s is just over the Tewksbury line on Andover St. They sell an XL variant of all their pizzas that’s $35+. I’ve never had an XL, but their regular pizzas are pretty good. Milan’s on Rogers St has a fluffier crust and a great chicken bacon ranch.

I don't know about the most expensive, but thinking about the "George's Special" from Lowell House of Pizza (Menu Here) has me close to planning a trip back to Lowell from Philly just to get a pie. It's that good.
