Interview with developer missed the mark
As concerns the [“We Have Questions”] article entitled “I Had a Vision of What Plymouth Could Be”:. The buildings (The Armory, Mount Pleasant School, etc.) that have been renovated by [Rick] Vayo, et al, are beautiful. I love that they remain in keeping with the historical architecture of their neighborhoods. That said, the decision to change the only hotel overlooking the ocean in a coastal town to luxury apartments seems out of step with that vision and in stark contrast to a comment made later in the article about there being no nice hotels in downtown Plymouth. That was a missed opportunity to turn that site into a super cool, mod boutique hotel.

New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox: Series Preview
Is this rock bottom for the Yankees? An All-Star break reset hasn’t blossomed into any tangible results for the team from the Bronx. A mixed-bag series against the Rays was followed by a beatdown at the hands of the cross-town rival Mets. Nothing the Yankees are doing has inspired much optimism as they head toward the trade deadline. They have holes to fill but what realistically can be done to alter different phases of this team — lineup depth, bullpen, another starter — is yet to be seen.
