What’s Happening In The North End / Waterfront

Start off the year by getting involved in the community! The January 2013 monthly North End Public Safety Meeting with Boston Police District A-1 will be held at 6:30 pm on Thursday night at the Nazzaro Center, 30 N. Bennet Street. All are welcome. (See last months’s report/video.)
It’s cold outside. (I know, that’s not exactly a news flash.) See the No Heat Advisory.
