We’ll see you this weekend for Boston’s annual Enchanted Trolley Tour! Visit boston.gov/enchantedtrolley to see when the Trolley is coming to your neighborhood.

Boston had a growing coffee-price problem as a result of tariffs, drought, and supply disruption. The average price per pound of coffee in Boston is $17.79, a 36 percent increase since January. Nationally, it’s $9.14. One way to start a revolution is to mess with Boston’s caffeine.

TL;DR: Dorchester is a coastal neighborhood, and the Morrissey Bvd plan must reflect that. Raising the road won’t fix the real issues: residents need safe routes, real waterfront access, & public spaces that work. If we rebuild this corridor, it should solve more than flooding & actually be useful.

As sad as they are for lining up behind the grifter, the other side never falls for this sort of scam.
