Suffolk Downs celebrates official lighting of the Lighthouse at Beachmont Square
The HYM Investment Group LLC (“HYM”) and the City of Revere recently celebrated the official lighting of The Lighthouse at Beachmont Square at Suffolk Downs. Located just outside the MBTA’s Beachmont Blue Line station at the site of the former Beachmont Roast Beef, The Lighthouse serves as a new visual landmark and gateway to Beachmont Square, helping to knit together the Beachmont neighborhood to the 161-acre Suffolk Downs redevelopment. The illuminated tower symbolizes the continued transformation of the historic Suffolk Downs site into a vibrant, connected, mixed-use community and will serve as a beacon for residents, commuters, and visitors of Beachmont Square.

Quincy council takes up surveillance rules, Granite Links lease
QUINCY ‒ City councilors on Monday, Nov. 9, will hold a public hearing on police surveillance technology and tackle a resolution urging state lawmakers not to extend Granite Links' lease of roughly 240 acres of public land into the 22nd century without more extensive financial analysis. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. with a public hearing on an ordinance proposed by Councilors Ziqiang Susan Yuan and Virginia Ryan that would require public input and council approval before the city adopts certain surveillance technologies, including automated license plate readers, facial recognition and systems that can track people or vehicles. The Ordinance Committee will take up the proposal at 6:30 p.m., and the full council could vote on the measure later in the evening.
