Fire at South Boston project
Adam, It hasn't been called a project in years. It used to be called the D Street project. It's been called the West Broadway Housing Development for several years now. All the new Yuppies are paying big money for their condo's on several streets that border the housing development. They would never buy property near a project. (lol)
Hope
the jake is well and the families can recover some normalcy.
Projects? OH MY!
I thought the PC term is housing development.
