One Brigham Circle

edit

One Brigham Circle is a shopping plaza which historically converted Brigham Circle from a run down store with a gas station and a bar to a shopping area, and provided a stable grocery, 2 banks, dental office, and two restaurants to a neighborhood that had been called 'a food desert' (a point that is curious for the untold history of this neighborhood). Brigham Circle is far more than an MBTA stop. The Brigham Circle plaza is a venue for Hispanic and other cultural concerts and sometimes 'free piano' and political, communal, and neighborhood events. Mission Hill Neighborhood Housing Services (MHNHS), which organized building the large building complex, which it now owns, is located inside the building complex, along with administrative offices for Brigham and Women's Hospital (across the street) - and teh 2 banks, Stop and Shop grocery, Walgreen's, the dental clinic, and the two restaurants. Someone should 'research this' further (consider my quick presentation here) and then write a section on what activities and operations are here and what the 'corner' was historically.

New panorama photograph of Brigham Circle needed

edit

The current 2008 panorama photograph of Brigham Circle shows Brigham Circle before significant architectural changes were made around the intersection: Construction of Stoneman Plaza and two underground parking garages at BWH, repainting Mission Bar and Grill, etc. I suggest that a newer panorama photograph of Brigham Circle be sought, snapped, and uploaded.
