Mike’s Pastry In Boston’s North End Still Draws Lines Out The Door For Cannoli

Some lines in Boston are for ballgames, and some are for concerts. One line in the North End forms every single day for something much smaller: a cannoli. People wrap around the corner, cash in hand, waiting their turn at a counter that has been famous for generations. The shop has been around since 1946, and it still acts like the busiest bakery in town because, most days, it is.

In Kendall Square, a long-awaited venue brings cultural boost

Cambridge's tech hub stands to get a culture boost as The Platform, a 45,000-square-foot performing arts venue and community space, opens Saturday. Why it matters: Kendall Square has a front-row seat to a rare sight — a mid-size performing arts venue opening as smaller venues increasingly shut their doors. Catch up quick: The opening is a dream decades in the making for Cambridge residents, since tech philanthropist Glenn KnicKrehm pledged to build a grand concert hall on the site in the 1990s, per Cambridge Day . He sold the property in 2018 to BioMed Realty. The real estate developer ultimately developed the 16-story lab-and-office building at 585 Third St. (now 585 Kendall ), creating a new headquarters for the pharmaceutical giant Takeda. State of play: The Platform's crown jewel is the 400-seat Takeda Theater on the second floor. But the public's introduction to the space is a living room-style lobby lined with trees and shrubs that leads to the 125-seat Tempo Stage. There's also a bar and a café coming soon. Global Arts Live, an arts nonprofit, will oversee the space. (The organization has hosted performances since 1990 but has never had a venue of its own.) What they're saying:

Bridgewater-Raynham football shows its strength in D2 Round of 16 win

BRIDGEWATER— Throughout nearly the entire fall season, Bridgewater-Raynham football was locked in the No. 2 spot in the MIAA Division 2 Power Rankings , trailing only the division’s back-to-back champion Catholic Memorial . On Thursday, Nov. 5, in the MIAA Division 2 Round of 16 , the No. 2 Trojans (6-2, 2-0 Pioneer Athletic Conference) showed just why that’s the case. B-R cruised to a 48-7 win over No. 15 Waltham (3-6, 1-1 Dual County Foley), putting on full display its strength and versatility on all sides of the ball, as well as its plethora of scoring options, to book the program’s third straight state quarterfinals appearance . “I think it’s great to be adaptable, especially when it comes to winning football games,” Trojans coach Eian Bain said. “You’ve got to be able to do different things, and obviously a quality opponents they want to take away your strengths, so we had to adjust on the fly to make sure we could maximize our matchups.” B-R had touchdowns from three different quarterbacks, as junior Logan Bovill connected with senior wide receiver Logan Tripp for a 24-yard touchdown and pitched a short pass to junior wide receiver Gabe Ocampo for a

Questioning the location of Framingham's new elementary school | Letter

As usual, the School Committee is befuddling in its planning of new school construction . Why is a replacement of Hemenway being built in Ashland? Isn't that a bit far flung? Wasn't the Wilson School replacement built to accommodate that part of Town with loss of Memorial, etc.? The larger question involves why the School Dept, Council recognize growth at the lower grade level, but not the need for accommodating it at the high school level. Shouldn't the new building be a high school? Maybe the Marian building would be ideal. Sorry to interrupt your reverie.
