I mean I get it but that’s not the biggest problem. Kenmore Square/Fenway in Boston has basically 2 interstates through it and it’s developed big time. More so than some areas of the big dig.

Seven stars does a lot of things right, not sure if they have pies, but if they do they’re probably fantastic

They buy me one for picking them up and it's the best payment for 30 minutes of "work"!
The pantry they have as well is wonderful! I find myself going out of my way to stop in for treats!

Those pies have been a hit in my family for over a decade. Everyone always asks me to bring 2 for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They are that good.

Thank you so much!! I don’t know what shifts they are looking for but it sounds like they only have three people on staff and could use some help immediately.

Cross the river and check out Taunton Ave Bakery in East Providence. Everything they make is great.

This bums me out so much. My wife worked there as an undergrad when they first opened, and picking up coffee with my son has become part of our Saturday morning routine (along with hitting BGO). Seriously going to miss them…

Not to mention that those "service roads" are treated like highways by most drivers

>not sure how walking on a sidewalk that's an overpass is a big deal for 150 ft
Maybe you would be sure if you actually walked there much
Also, if only it were merely the length of the overpass. The highway blights a blocks wide strip along both sides where not much but neglected parking lots, tire shops, traffic choked streets and, how convenient, Crossroads are to be found.

Federal Hill Taphouse does $1.50 oysters and half off apps. Durk’s is half off apps on Thursdays. Black Duck is half off apps on Wednesdays.

I respectfully disagree.. 95 is a huge gash through the center of the city. We should do everything we can to undo the damage.
I-95, combined with the dreary wasteland that is Cathedral Square today completely killed one of the most active parts of the city.
