Every person I have spoken to from Dorchester or South Boston passionately hates the name and is not exactly sure why. Kind of like Whoop

Yes, but they just copied the form of what was already there

Nobody actually believed that was going to get built

So the question that interests me is why is there persistent crime and poverty among such wealth?

I see dead people

Turn it around: Why is the crime rate in Boston and Massachusetts and New England so low?

Okay, but when I go on the Harbor Walk I reasonably expect to see the harbor, otherwise it should be called a building walk
