“Someday, when I’m long since gone, my name will be remembered. People from Biloxi to Bombay will know the name ‘Storrow’ and all it represents. Maybe it will be my law career, or my investment banking successes. Or maybe my business acumen as a GM founder. Or yet still, my time on the Boston City Counsel. God willing!”

~ James J. Storrow in 1925, probably

Hey, I know that bridge. Right by the Polar Express. Lots of…good? memories down there.

Fun fact: If he’d gone right there’s a bridge over the tracks maybe 1/4 mile down the road.

Went to Beacon for HS there and used to all crowd around the windows at school whenever we heard a loud metal crunching sound from outside since we knew it was a truck getting stuck under the train bridge.

Happens two or three times a year like clockwork

This is the first I've ever heard of that town. How does one pronounce Woonsocket?
