Revere breaks ground on largest public school project in Massachusetts​


REVERE, Mass. —

Revere has begun construction on its new high school, the largest public school project in Massachusetts, located on the former Wonderland Greyhound Park site.

....

The new building will hold more than 2,400 students, an effort to relieve citywide overcrowding. It will also be environmentally state-of-the-art, featuring geothermal heating and cooling, a micro-forest and 12.8 acres of public open space.

"We're in the middle of wetlands and we want to make sure that we replicate that and we bring the wildlife back to the area," Keefe said.

The project will cost about $493 million, with the Massachusetts School Building Authority helping to support almost half of that cost.

....

Construction will begin immediately, and the project is on track to be completed in three years.

Hell yeah. Any word what's happening with the old high school site? This is a great location right at the blue line and near the beach and I love that there's some solid support from the Commonwealth to get this thing going.
 
Would it be appropriate to change the name of the Wonderland stop to Revere HS when this project is complete?
Just call it Wonderland High School -- much cheaper than changing ever T map and sign.

(Hint, you don't change the name of the terminus station of a line -- whose name appears on every wayfinding sign on the line, and map throughout the system -- without a damn good reason. Something like extending the line to Lynn and Salem.)

"Wonderland High School." That sounds like the name of some shady 80s skin flick.
