Hello,

now that the plans for the new civic center/office tower have unfortunately

fallen through, I was wondering if you had any other plans for that particular

development site in the future? thanks for your time.

lets hope that some better plans rise out of all of this and we get a mixed blessing...maybe a 20+ story structure? who knows what will be considered by the next guy....all i know is that if a grocery store goes up there or something like a 2-story gorham savings bank than i am running out of this state as fast as possible...

^have you see the 1 story Gorham Savings bank across from the AAA building on Marginal Way. It's right in front of a 1 story Hollywood Video store

oh dont even get me started on how much that annoys me. they talk about how "great" and "grand" bayside could be and then they fill it with crap like that as part of the redevelopment scheme...c'mon people...and plus, there is another gorham savings like three blocks from there by the new hilton (ugliest building built in the last 10 years in all of new england, i am sure of it)...i have a video of this part of bayside, lemme see if i can find it...

[pvenne]

here they are...one is of the hollywood video you speak of...and the other is of the new AAA building out in the same neck of the woods...

AAA

gross bayside

I hate when they put 1 story generic chain buildings right in town, what an awful use of space.
