Street locations in Boston will drive you crazy. There is a Washington Street in Brighton, Downtown Boston, Roxbury, Dorchester, West Roxbury, Rosindale. Boston has no grid system, street numbering just starts wherever the street starts.That is Y U need the box number. Progress report: heavy fire knocked down in a 3 story, chasing hot spots.
