Things To Do in Boston This Weekend: November 13-November 15
From magic and comedy to candlelit strings and chart-topping R&B, Boston's weekend event lineup has something for every taste. Piff the Magic Dragon and his Chihuahua sidekick bring deadpan laughs and jaw-dropping illusions to City Winery Boston, while Candlelight: Tribute to Dolly Parton reimagines country classics inside a historic cathedral. GRAMMY winner Victoria Monét celebrates her new album on the Frequency of Love Tour at MGM Music Hall at Fenway. Pub comedy, a Grateful Dead tribute, late-night dancing, Celtics and Bruins matchups, a Doris Kearns Goodwin talk, and a Trippie Redd concert keep the momentum going.

Just Across The River Is A Massachusetts City With Quaint Shops, Tasty Eats, And Quick Train Access Into Boston
Boston is home to one of the top five largest metro areas in the U.S. according to the U.S. Census Bureau, and that population sprawl extends into nearby communities that offer city amenities with a smaller town feel.

Part of what makes Chelsea so appealing is how easy it is to reach from Boston. In just a 10-minute train ride, visitors can immerse themselves in an entirely new city.

Nobscot Housing Plan Keeps Shrinking as Framingham Council Weighs Rezoning
A long-debated housing proposal for a roughly 30-acre swath of Framingham's Nobscot neighborhood has shrunk again, with the latest version calling for between 325 and 350 units — down from an earlier 416-unit plan that itself followed concepts once contemplated at more than 1,000 potential units back in 2024. The Planning and Zoning Subcommittee discussed the scaled-back proposal on November 9, but has not finalized a unit count, leaving the project in limbo even as one councilor pushes to speed things along.

A nurses' strike is averted, while a lack of urgency prevails on Beacon Hill
With less than eight hours to spare, Brigham and Women's Hospital nurses and Mass General Brigham late Wednesday managed to avert a potentially historic open-ended strike. Divided over cost-of-living increases, limits on temporary travel nurses and health insurance contributions, the parties negotiated for hours Monday and made "some progress" — but not enough to call off the strike. Even as Gov. Maura Healey and Boston Mayor Michelle Wu stopped by the session and called on the sides to strike a deal, it seemed likely thousands of nurses would end up streaming through Longwood Medical Area by 7 a.m. Thursday. No additional talks were scheduled.
