Heavy-equipment cleanup under way this afternoon along Harbor Ave, just southeast of the complex in which Sleepless Coffee nestles:
No development proposals in the work for this parcel so far as we can tell; however, we’re experiencing memory loss — wasn’t this the “other” parcel with one of the famous old boats? It’s not the one we showed here – that’s still intact (so to speak) a few blocks southeast.
Yes, you’ve got it right. They (the owners?) have been clearing junk out of this lot for at least a week. It was so overgrown that you couldn’t tell from the street that there was a large delivery truck back there… possibly with a structure around it, judging by all the cut lumber they also removed. The boat and truck have been hauled away. The boat on this lot wasn’t seaworthy but it was more recognizable as a vessel than the pile of lumber with ’13’ painted on it in the other post.
Just a thought, it seems that this old truck might have been the “home” of a gentleman in the turqoise colored jacket that used to walk up to Don Armeni boat launching ramp, looking for food in the garbage cans along the way. If so, does anyone know what happened to him since the cleaning up of the lot has displaced him? I wonder if any Social Services has followed up on him?
Sorry, comment time is over.
