The Week: Navy Week and Charlestown Pride

Notable stories from the week of July 2-6.

 

We know it can be easy to fall behind on the news. If you fell behind this week, here are five stories we think you should take a look at:

Navy Week in Boston. There’s not a lot to say about this story—at least, not in words. We did our best, though, to tell the story in pictures.

Charlestown residents explain their Pan-Mass participation. We published a number of letters this week from Charlestown residents who will participate in this summer’s Pan-Mass Challenge.

Domino’s heads to the Boston Licensing Board next week. The Charlestown Neighborhood Council has had its say on the matter of a franchise owner who would like to bring a Domino’s to Main Street. Now, the Boston Licensing Board gets its say.

Good news/bad news. We got word this week that the Tuttle’s cleaners on Moulton Street will shut down this fall. While it’s sad to see a local business going away, it opens the door for another business to take its place—and lots of residents have ideas for the space.

Charlestown is Boston’s third-most prideful neighborhood. I’m not telling you anything new by suggesting that Charlestown residents don’t think of themselves as Bostonians—not primarily, anyway—but now I have data to back it up.
