    Red Sox / BRA Land Swap

    In the city's vision, Richard Ross way will create block porosity, which actually is a neighborhood benefit. Their plan is to eventually extend it all the way to Brookline Ave at Overland Street. Maybe its all part of the evil red sox plan to give an alternative route to yawkey way.

    Re: 1325-1341 Boylston St (Fenway Triangle/Former Goodyear Tire) This store is over 160,000 SF on two levels. Guess is it will include grocery and will be one of the highest sales volume of any target given its location relative to schools, etc.
