Labor dispute at One Davis Sq construction site?

[ron_newman]

If you walk up Day Street towards the square, the chain-link gate blocking the left sidewalk bears a sign declaring that it is the "Non-Picketed Gate", and that employees of DFM, Inc. may not use it.

On the Dover Street sidewalk, a similar gate has a sign saying it is the "Picketed Gate" and that it IS for use by DFM, Inc.; all others may go to the Non-Picketed Gate. This morning it looked like someone was indeed setting up a picket line next to the Picketed Gate.

Anyone know what this is all about?

and the question is/was, why is there a strike?

There is not a strike; this would appear to be what is referred to as an 'informational picket' where a union is communicating with non-union workers to encourage them to join the union. The picketers do not work at the site.
