Harvard Replaces Mahoney's Nursery with Dorms

On the site of Mahoney's Nursery, Harvard is building dorms and a public park at the corner of Western Avenue and Memorial Drive. In spite of the many violations of state and local laws, Harvard boasts of their contribution to the quality of life of the city by creating a city park. They also boast of adding affordable housing for ordinary citizens. It is what the many politicians pointed to that mitigated the law violations.
