Skating Club of Boston/Studio Allston Redevelopment | 1240/1234 Soldiers Field Rd | Allston

I lived in Brighton for awhile by Saint Elizabeth's, and I guess I always thought of the whole swath of land north of the Pike as "Lower Allston".

Edit: I guess Everett is the dividing line between 02134 and 02135. Huh.

I recall seeing a Universal Hub story a year or two ago looking at the various divergent boundaries between Allston and Brighton that have emerged over the years, for example in BPDA or City documents and maps.

I agree though, even though technically part of the land north of the Pike is classified as Brighton, I think of it all as Lower Allston, with Allston Village comprising the other half of the neighborhood south of the Pike.
 
It lives!

Quick take: I like it, but LOL at the labelling in the renders ("flexible lawn", "active grove", "programmable activation"). Also, I highly doubt that bridge will ever see even close to 10 people on it at one time.
