City Looking to Reimagine the Waterfront MONDAY, APRIL 16, 2018 City looking to reimagine the waterfront By Thomas Grillo ITEM STAFF LYNN — More than a decade after a consul- tant imagined a redeveloped waterfront with apartments, boutique retail, offices, and hotels, the city is seeking to update the plan. The Economic Development Industrial Corp., (EDIC) the city’s development bank, has invited proposals from design firms to provide a blue- print for the 300-acre site. Today, most of the site contains giant retailers, and almost a quarter of it remains undeveloped, or contains parking lots. “There has been lots of changes since the origi- nal plan was done in 2007,” said James Cowdell, EDIC’s executive director. “Back then, the pow- er lines were a big obstacle to development and they’re gone now, and the North Harbor site is in the final stages of permitting and a shovel will be in the ground this year for a $90 million res- By Gayla Cawley Debra idential project.” ITEM STAFF Shalachman The bids are due on May 1, and a decision is At 59, McQuade is LYNN — Debra Shalachman McQuade, a 59-year- expected by May 30.

Dick Lynch, Swampscott coach, dies By Steve Krause ITEM SPORTS EDITOR Dick Lynch, one of the most important architects of Swampscott High’s two-plus decades of football dominance, died Sun- day at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. Lynch joined head coach Stan Bonde- levitch in 1954 as an assistant coach and offensive coordinator, and stayed there un- til 1973, when he became Danvers High’s athletic director. Lynch, who was 91, also coached the Big Blue boys basketball team to a victory in the old Tech Tourney at the Boston Garden in 1968. “When he spoke, people listened,” said his son, Mike, who is WCVB-TV, Channel 5’s principal sports anchor. “He was very much respected as a coach.

This year’s field includes reigning USATF marathon national champions Emma Bates and Brogan Austin, and five U.S. women with personal records (PRs) faster than 2:30 (including two of the top 10 fastest women in U.S. history). “This year’s elite field highlights an exciting resurgence we are seeing in American distance running right now,” said Bank of America Chicago Marathon Executive Race Director Carey Pinkowski. “We have a deep pool of American runners who are coming to Chicago to run fast, and we cannot wait to welcome them in the fall. We could see new American records and a lot of personal bests in October.” American women’s field With a PR of 2:20:57, Hasay leads this year’s field as the second-fastest American woman in history and the fastest to ever run the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Hasay hopes to put Deena Kastor’s long-standing American record, 2:19:36, in jeopardy. But Hasay’s primary competitor won’t be the clock alone – Amy Cragg, Emma Bates, Stephanie Bruce, Lindsay Flanagan and Taylor Ward represent a strong contingent of U.S.

  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.
