As a live person whom grew-up in Allston (anyone left??) --- I can remember grandparents from both sides of my family tree stating that Hano Street was rough, tough, and watch-out for whiskey bottles and coal stove fires.
Frankly, Hano Street, today, is a far cry from years on back. It was a very tough-living area with massive poverty and days upon end boozin'
Many of the old workers and folks, whom had jobs, worked in the RR yards.
