    Back Bay Infill and Small Developments

    Re: the lack of progress. Possibly when they demolished the old building, they found structural deficiencies in the brick wall of the American Ancestors building? The top-to-bottom bracing below the old roof line suggests there is a concern about the stability of the wall(s).

    Blynman Canal Bridge Replacement | Gloucester
