Area around Roslindale Square is powerless
By adamg - 8/23/11 - 8:15 amRoslindale Square residents and business lost power for several hours last night; some reports this morning indicate the power still isn't back on at a steady rate.
Ed Grzyb reported around 8:45 a.m. that his power continues to flicker and that "my computers have been going haywire." The state reports the Roslindale Registry branch is closed "until further notice," although it's blaming Verizon problems.

Roslindale restaurant still not a drive-thru
By adamg - 8/8/11 - 8:58 amEd Grzyb reports somebody managed to drive into the front of Cafe Rialto, 4197 Washington St. this morning. The front of the restaurant suffered minor damage, but the car was totaled, Grzyb reports, adding:
Looks like it drove across median by the Registry heading inbound towards Forest Hills, could see tire tracks.
A few years ago, a driver did similar damage to the Greater Roslindale Medical and Dental Center just up the street not long after it opened its new offices. The center put up several bollards to prevent a repeat crash.
