If the address is correct, that's the Fordham Court apartment building. It was built by the guy who owned the Red Sox at the time, Joseph J. Lannin.

It was NOT at Fordham court, but across the street and behind the brick attached buildings which face Fordham Court. While this is near to the overpass, the crime did not take place at or under the overpass. Conflicting reports have appeared in the news and given to police about the location, but uninvolved witnesses put the shooting behind the buildings, not on the street side.

i've often wondered about that building (across from Fordham). One can faintly make out the words "delicatessen" over the boarded up doors

The deli was gone by 1966.

It's quite close to the Copley inspired park for the proposed surface option to replace Casey Overpass.

Maybe all the shenanigans will end once the Copley inspired park opens for the vagrants, skateboarders and panhandlers to enjoy.

No crimes ever happen beneath overpasses, nosiree. Safest place to be is under a bridge.

Because Franklin Field already doesn't attract crowds of kids reenacting scenes from A Clock-Work Orange?
