...or regardless, she'll claim credit to justify her position. It's what politicians do...

I'm not sure what the point was. One is a Cambridge project (so I'm not sure what it has to do with a city of Boston employee), and the other is a stalled Boston project.

not related to Corean Reynolds.

She is irrelevant because they didn't hire a competent adult with related experience. While it was a good idea to hire a black person and a very good idea to hire a woman...you needed to hire an experienced one from a nearby city like NYC/DC/even Providence.

Honestly, Nia Grace would've been a better hire.

naw it's 2 projects. That's my fault, let me be clearer

DxDunster is in the back of an indoor shopping plaza called "the Garage" in Cambridge... (near the old Curious George Store)

The Sound Club is taking the place of a former nightclub called "the Garage" in Allston.

Yes they did.

Boston Globe found that out with MCG earlier. Why she got all that funding over long established programs and peoples who don't talk like coked out-ghetto-sailors is still beyond me.

Boston is really NOT a college town never was never will be.

A college town is a town, not a city. Reliant upon college for bulk of its activity and populations one that caters to college students.

it includes thing line 18+ clubs
Big time football
Rallying around 1-3 major colleges
It should be central to the economy and day-to day of most of the town.


For most Bostonians colleges are a thing in the other side of the river, college athletic culture is nonexistent and irrelevant, nightlife is the domain of the well monied and eecidedly non collegiate. And most people don't work for or in colleges.

Boston was founded as a Port City long before colleges then became a textile manufacturing center. Even today there are a number of major cities with significantly higher % of college educated people… Amherst is a college town, Cambridge is a college town.

Boston. Is nonkand grant area, it's a complicated blakanized city that happens to have a lot of disjointed colleges in the area…

I went to Gainesville for a track meet in college. THAT is a college town with a lot of fun nightlife geared to it. Basically the polar opposite of Boston in every way/
