Sign of the times! Last Call!
We’re not joking! The last day for Tom English’s on Dot Ave will be April Fool’s Day. The iconic bar will be developed into a new mixed use building at 951-959A Dorchester Ave. The project will replace Tom English’s and the Dorchester Market with a 5-story building with 38 residential units (5 would be “affordable”), and potentially a restaurant and a market on the ground level.
There will also be 26 parking spots.
Dorchester Market will officially close on April 7th. Make sure you stop by and say your good-byes.
