The developers of 345 Harrison Ave. are seeking ideas for a name for their new "apartment community." The winner gets $10,000. And, yes, they've learned from Boaty McBoatFace: No voting on names this time around.
Grant probably won't be entering, because as he notes, an apartment building on Harvard Avenue in Allston already has the best name:
Nothing will ever beat BACON CHAMBERS.

The street was laid out as Front Street in the late 1830's since it ran along the waterfront. (South Bay). After President Harrsion, the hero of the Battle of Tippencanoe, died suddenly, the street was renamed in his honor.

Sorry spell correct doesn't work on names of obscure War of 1812 battles while stuck at a Rockland stop light. Please have mercy.
