This makes East Boston the North End, all of downtown the South End (which also now encompasses all of Roxbury and all of Dorchester west of the Expressway), and Charlestown I think is now Chinatown. Not to worry, I'm sure the brokers will figure it out for us.

We have some Italian restaurants that easily rival the North End, including what I’d argue is the best in the city.

specials menu. Haven't been back since pre-covid. Is it still an impossible wait for a table on weekends?

a crazy wait, but so worth it. It also travels well if you’re relatively close, I’ve called for takeout more times than I’ve eaten inside.

Don’t sleep on D’Parma or Mario’s either. They don’t get the same hype but I’d pick either over most of the North End spots I’ve been to (admittedly only about a dozen).

What was there before? Free parking! https://goo.gl/maps/aoRW9a4yk3pMTtq17

Probably unintentional, since earlier Street Views have a North End permit sign on top of the pole. It fell down for obvious reasons: it was mounted by a stupid piece of hardware that only grips a sign by the bottom edge. https://goo.gl/maps/EjUxFyWWaCmwnMBU7

Signs mounted this way are always bending under their own weight and falling down, especially when they're stacked by clipping to the top edge of a lower sign, but cities and towns keep doing it. What will it take to get them to stop?
