  7. What's next for the Eastern Nazarene College site?

    Season 6, Episode 2

    Show notes

    A wonderful evening of idea-sharing with Mayor Koch and the City team on the future of the former ENC campus. So many great thoughts – well, maybe with the exception of the person who wrote down “Casino” as a potential future use at the campus. We’ll be compiling the comments and suggestions into a report in the coming weeks – and you can still provide feedback for this part of the public process at www.quincyma.gov/enc or e-mailing directly ENCFeedback@quincyma.gov through March 27.
