What a disaster that housing
What a disaster that housing project is. JP is the second largest neighborhood in Boston yet pretty much all the shootings happen at this one place.
Redevelopment
MH apartments are in the first phase of a huge redevelopment project.

Not sure if this will change the crime that happens there. I'm also not sure if the project is on track for it's scheduled completion on time. Anyone in the know have any updates?
Not in the know
But I pass by it and construction seems to being at a steady clip.
