What A Blow To The Area
By John Costello

Top 5 traffic chokepoint for the area, actually probably the worst.
Area of at least two bicyclist deaths in the past few years.
Diesel fumes from trains and I-93.
Fumes from the Edison plant when the wind comes from the north.
Noise from commuter trains, the Orange Line, and I-93.
The smell from the recycling plant just south of Sullivan Square.
The vacant buildings on the southerly side of Cambridge Street.
The pavement that feels like it was carpet bombed by the 8th Air Force.
Yup, this will destroy the area.

I'll own it, I missed it.
I projected the forthcoming whining session onto John.
I'm surprised...

That there isn't a dispensary opening over on Terminal Street. Easier parking etc...
Maybe too close to the schools / community center? Not sure on the regulations around that, but Downeast Cider was there for awhile.

A dispensary in the soon to be vacant Charlestown post office, logistically seems to make sense
I love it.

Most def going to try and make this meeting. They wanna sandwich in between a bar and a liquor store, the arguments against it should be compelling for sure (eye roll). I'll be the guy ranting about democracy.
