Pot proposals pop up in Allston/Brighton

By adamg on Tue, 12/18/2018 - 9:56am

A company called Natural Selections is proposing a pot shop at 345 Washington St., near Chestnut Hill Avenue, in Brighton Center.

Mayflower Medicinals has proposed adding recreational marijuana to the medical marijuana they offer at their existing facility at 230 Harvard Ave. in Allston, next to the TJ Maxx on the Brookline line. The Allson Civic Association will discuss the proposal at its monthly meeting on Wednesday. The meeting starts at 6 p.m. at the Honan-Allston BPL branch.

Because the skunk stench of weed isn't already prevalent enough in the city...

Edibles and Extracts

Recreational facilities aren't going to lead to more people smoking. If anything, there will likely be less of it in the air as people move on to the readily available edibles and extracts, which are also a healthier method of ingestion. Worry not my friend.

Guess what, anon? The people of Massachusetts voted, and you lost. Sucks to be you, I guess, but I can't think of a better place to put a pot shop in Boston than Allston.

a cruel twist of fate to have a pot shop open above a now out of business legendary pizza shop. i guess pizza doesn’t pay the rent these days.

I don't personally toke but at least one can take the 57 or 86 buses to that location(if not just walk). Hilariously, the pot shop in Salem is touted as "T accessible" when it's nowhere near the train station.
