Yeah, had always heard it called Grew Hill, as in Ol' Man Grew, whose house was up here and who probably looked out on his property, which included what's now the golf course and Stony Brook Reservation (and who shared his land with the Hermit of Grew Hill).

Jealous of that back porch
Jealous of that back porch view. I had a nice view in Eastie of the harbor, but my view in Revere now is basically just Beachmont station. Meh.
So y'all call it Grew not Monterey hill?
I've wondered why there was a Grew Hill Rd. on Monterey Hilltop.
Interesting, had never heard Monterey before
