weird
article I saw a few days ago stating that Brookline PD requested a weekend opening to help work out the crowd difficulties on a weekend vs a weekday.

That intersection

yeh buddy

At least this is further down Rt 9.

Good news: convenient location
Bad news: Only realizing now that the Carvel shop on Route 9 has closed. (Didn't there use to be one across the street from this bank?)
It had been a dunkin donuts
It had been a dunkin donuts since at least 2007. They tore the building down a few months ago and they're building a 10 condo building in it's place.
