Part 2 of Chris Faraone's Weekly Dig series on Somerville
The second installment of Chris Faraone's Weekly Dig series on Somerville politics is now on the street and online:
Ghosts of Assembly Square
The article ends with a teaser for upcoming part 3: "the Dig will show some of the ways Curtatone’s development agenda has manifested throughout Somerville: an ethically challenged zoning board, uncertified building commissioners, and residents learning to fight back."
(for part 1, see both The Somerville Files, Part 1: Nightmare on Beacon Street on the Weekly Dig website, and the resulting discussion here on DSLJ.)

but I'd rather have seen a new branch of Diesel/Bloc 11 or of True Grounds or of Fortissimo (or something entirely new and local). This is beyond the city's direct control, but I don't want to see the new area fill up with chains that lack local character.
