Vol.1, Number 28 January 14, 1988 - DEALERSHIP PLANNED 'J Volvos for Vatco? By Joe Clements

City officials and residents gave mixed reviews this week on a proposal to open a Volvo dealership in North Allston. The business is planned for the former Vatco Industries building on Everett Street, a site some say is inappropriate for that type of use. "It's a very poor location from my standpoint," said District 9 City Councilor Brian McLaughlin. "I don't think it fits in there at all." :'rhe 118,000-square-foot building is owned by Edward Madden, a local real estate developer and owner of a pa~ing company. Madden became embroiled in a controversy this past year with No: th · Allstorrresidents after he paved over a house lot to extend the parking lot for his Lineoln Street office building. ~ .

Marty's Site has New Plan The owners of the Marty's Liquor Store site at Harvard and Commonwealth Avenues in Allston have come up with a new plan for the property, one involving a mix of retail and residential use. A representative of co-owner Martin Siegal was to meet Thursday night with the South Allston Neighborhood Association board to present the latest design plan. According to Bernard Shadrawy Jr., a spokesman for Siegal, the three-story building would feature a first-floor retail space that would include a new Marty's and some smaller stores. The top two stories would be 24 apartments, with most of them two-bedroom units. While stating that rental prices have not been determined yet, Shadrawy said they would most likely be market rate. Shadrawy noted that the property meets the Interim Pl~nning Overlay District's 35-foot height Joseph Perere of Perere Construction shows enthusiasm for his work on the caretaker's bouse at standard, and said every effort was made to make the Evergreen Cemetery in Brighton.

Twenty years ago, dwing her senior year at Brighton High School, Rosina "Kitty" Bowman served as class historian. Today, however, as the new District 9 Boston School Committee representative, she is more concerned with her alma mater's future than its past. Following her November victory over incumbent William Donlan, Bowman last week was sworn in to the two-year post and began settling into her Court Street office. This week, during an interview with the Journal, Bowman talked about her goals for the coming term, which range from keeping Brighton High open to improving ties between the school district and the downtown administration. While noting that there are no specific plans to close Brighton High, Bowman said the general sense is that one of the city's high schools will eventually be shut down. Brighton High is in danger, she said, becau~ its enrollment level is below that considered efficient for running a city high $Chool. · One reason for that was the recent loss of an automotive school at Brighton High, and Bowman Rosina "Kitty" Bowman ~t Boston School Committee headquarters.

The St. Columbkille High School boy's basketball team's four-game winning streak came to an abrupt halt Tuesday evening at the Jackson/Mann Community School in Allston, as they fell to the powerful St. Patrick's Knights of Watertown, 82-63. Two major factors figured into the Chieftains' second loss of the season, which dropped their record to 5-2. The first was a week-long layoff .._. . which caused the club to come out flat. The second - - was a very good St. Patrick's ballclub that seemed to . have a miminum height requirement of 6' 3". Still, the Chieftains had a chance of upsetting the Knights (now 6-1) with a good defensive effort, but they started out slow and never recovered. St Pat's went on a 10-2 run at the start of the game behind the strong inside play of Billy Larkin and Jeff Comisiong, and the Knights then extended the lead to 18-6 before Darin Gentile hit two baskets to rally the Chieftains and cut the lead to 20-12 after one quarter.
