Pack Your Bags For This Massachusetts Town Where $1,500 A Month Covers Absolutely Everything

There are cities in Massachusetts that will take everything you earn and hand you back a studio apartment and a vague sense of financial anxiety, and then there’s Gardner. Gardner, Massachusetts is the city that quietly decided affordability and quality of life weren’t mutually exclusive, and it has been proving that point for years while the rest of the state wasn’t watching.

At old O'Connor's, a menu of legal troubles and $82K in owed taxes | Exclusive

(Correction: an earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the status of the building.) WORCESTER – A mortgage lender is suing the owners of the now-shuttered O'Connor's Restaurant & Bar, alleging, among other complaints, that they owe thousands in taxes to the city and are not doing enough to attract a buyer. The lawsuit is one of two being litigated against Kyle and Dennis Maxwell, the operators of Carlow Clove Inc., which owns the closed eatery at 1160 West Boylston St. The father and son duo took over O'Connor's in 2022 from Brendan and Claire O'Connor, who had operated the restaurant for more than 30 years . The noted restaurant shut down unexpectedly in March , a week before St. Patrick's Day, due to a damage from a burst pipe, the Maxwells said on social media. Since then, the once-bustling building has sat empty while rumors have swirled about who might purchase the parcel. During a recent reporter visit, the restaurant appeared frozen in time, complete with signage advertising the week's specials. Only a portion of the black wooden sign that reads O'Connor's was out of place, having fallen and now resting against the entryway. "I've heard all sorts of

It feels wonderfully stubborn in the best way. That same practical streak seems to carry into everyday life here. While much of Massachusetts can...
