Grove St. Odor

I recently moved from Gorham St. to Winsow Ave., and in doing so have walked a little more frequently on Grove St.

Has the stench - and I think it's coming from McKinnon's, but could be wrong - from the dumpster behind McKinnons through Cristo's always been there?  I mean, it can really knock you over.  I love McKinnon's, but am getting a little ascared of buying stuff from them, although I'm also assuming that the smell is more from refuse in their dumpster than anything they're selling.  

Maybe I just never noticed it before?  I would think there would have been a complaint...

And by mentioning Martsa, you reminded me exactly where this subject previously came up.

It was the early 90s when I lived in the Highland Avenue apt. near that foul dumpster so this problem has been around for a long time. I have also lived near restaurant dumpsters and have never experienced anything like the McKinnon's stench.
