The Globe assembled dozens of people who had something to do with the Marathon for a large photo.
Any particular reason the MIT police car is illegally parked on the sidewalk?
Really?
I suspect they were given permission on a street that was closed off anyway.
When your parents are in wheelchairs, you notice such things.
The sidewalk is very broad here. There's enough width for a chair to get through.
Unacceptable...they are forcing people in wheelchairs to go around another block. The terrorists have won.
Good question. Maybe you should get to the bottom of that..
If you look at the behind the scene photos the street is clearly blocked off. My guess is that they wanted the MIT police car, along with the EMS truck and the fire truck in the shot. http://www.bostonglobe.com/news/special-reports/2014/04/14/bgcom-behind-...
They took all that time to arrange the photo shoot, but many of the police and fire personnel in the back are unidentified. Sort of a shame.
Nice to see Ortiz in the shot (as well as Pedroia, Bergeron and Chara. I guess since the C's were out of town they couldn't get one of them.)
