No immediate word on just what they were doing in the tail end of Fort Point Channel shortly after 11 a.m., but Boston firefighters got them a ladder, they climbed out and now they're under the care of Boston EMS.

It's the bridge connecting Broadway and Traveler St in Southie/ the South End. It's named after a white supremacist and truly terrible human being.

Connecting Southie to the "mainland" of Boston. It used to be said of the occasional South Boston resident, "He (or she) has never been over the Broadway Bridge", meaning that person was such a provincial resident of South Boston he (or she) lived an entire life without ever leaving Southie for ANYTHING.

Where do you think the homeless were going to move to when they were evicted from their tent city under the highway. The state put up a parking lot and kicked out these lost souls and they now live on railroad property.
