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. The design of the tower pays homage to the former structure that sat atop the Beachmont T Stop and served as a visual marker to commuters.

To the Editor: Bad Ideas About Local Responsibilities Harm Cambridge
The tactlessness with which critics are willing to condemn Cambridge’s divestment vote is on full display in a recent op-ed published in The Crimson. Within a broader argument that Cambridge City Council has no mandate on foreign policy — misguided in its premise, given the city’s own relationships — the author questions the origins of two of its members, Ayah A. Al-Zubi ’23 and Mayor Sumbul Siddiqui. He notes that “Al-Zubi was born in Jordan, while Siddiqui is originally from Pakistan,” then suggests that this detail complicates Harvard’s ability to defend its international students against the Trump administration.

Porter Square Sub Shop Replaces Half Shell After Nearly 30 Years on Mass. Ave.
A sandwich shop is moving into one of Porter Square's most familiar addresses.
