Rink Dedication a Reminder of Southie Community Strength

By: Ray Flynn, Former Mayor of Boston, U.S. ambassador to the Vatican and proud lifelong resident of South Boston.

I

spoke at the dedication of the Jack O’Brien Street Hockey Court at Moakley Park in Southie on Saturday.

After thanking Jack O’Brien’s daughter Tara for inviting me, I offered the following remarks: This ba llpark is where it all began for so many kids from Southie. And it is good to see so many friends here

this morning, from Jackie’s early Little League days, St. Aug ustine’s C YO Ba seba ll, the Mustangs and the Hawks (sandlot football teams), and our days winning city championships in football and baseball at South Boston High School.

It all began right here at Columbia-Moakley Park. But even before Jackie and I played ball here together with Dom Gentile, Gerry Wheeler, Bob Nichols, Tom Devine, Ken Preskinis with coaches Frank Fallon, George McCarthy, John Horan, Charlie Connolly and Bill Burton, there were earlier standouts like Bill Hurld, Dick Lucas, Normie Fitzgerald, the Sullivans and Steve Flynn, just to name a few. But the kids that came along years later are really the reasons why we pay tribute to Jack O’Brien today. When these kids needed help and support, they received it. Jack O’Brien, like his wonderful dad Eddie before him, were so generous and committed in supporting the youth of South Boston, from athletic programs, the Girls and Boys Club, Julie’s Learning Center to so many other

important girls and boys social service agencies. The O’Brien Family was always ready to help.

And in the mid 1990s, when the deadly crack cocaine epidemic hit our streets, and especially the youth of Southie, it was our social service agencies and churches largely financed by businesses like O’Brien’s Funeral Home who stepped up and helped provide vital resources. I was at the Vatican at the time, but Jackie, Gerry Ridge and Willie McDonough called me and asked me to call some prominent Catholics, including the cardinal, to assist the various recovery programs and provide financial help for needy families.

No grandstanding, everything quietly and behind the scenes.

It was the the ugliest time in our community’s history, including school busing, but the neighborhood miraculously c a me toget her, like good families do in time of crisis, and made a big difference.

One last story I would like to tell you. Over the years I have traveled quite a bit. In fact, all over the country and world.

Often times someone will come

up to me and say, ‘Ambassador, you come from a neighborhood where a lot of well-known people are from. U.S. House speakers, cardinals, mayors, congressman and war heroes. You must have been pretty proud to grow up in South Boston?’ Yes, as a matter of fact I am. But let me tell you something else that I am even more proud of. I grew up in a community where average working class families cared for one another. If someone needed help, people like Jackie O’Brien and so many others were there.

Like Jack, they quietly but generously contributed to needy causes and supported numerous kids’ sports teams. And that’s why we are here today, paying tribute to this fine son of South Boston.

Jack ha s a lways been there for the kids of Southie a nd the people of South Boston are here today for him.

Ye s, some t h i ng s i n Southie have changed, but Jackie O’Brien and the people’s c onc ern for k id s ha sn’t.

L e t ’s watch the kids play hockey.

A Review: Mul’s @ Amrheins Is Still Mul’s

by Rick Winterson

O

ver the past few weeks, Sout h B o s ton On l i ne reported on the demolition of the original Mul’s, sited on the southwest corner of A and West Broadway, and we recently posted a brief notice that Mul’s has now reopened diagonally across the intersection on the northeast corner of A and Broadway.

In other words, Mul’s is now called “Mul’s @ Amrheins”; it has reopened for breakfast and lunch in Amrhein’s at 80 West Broadway. And as a reminder, A mrheins itself (established in South Boston 130 years ago, in 1890) will reopen for evening dining “in the near future”, according to its management people.

So it’s time for a review We stopped for breakfast in Mul’s @ Amrhein’s on Monday. Seating in the dining room is always a pleasant experience, and of course, the area is Socially Distanced and the staff wear masks. The Mul’s menu features seven special breakfasts and seven other offerings.

This writer breakfasted on sausage, s c r a mble d eggs, English muffins, and black coffee – all delicious. The breakfast hour went by much too rapidly.

Mul’s breakfast menu has an attractive variety to it. In addition to what might be called “traditional” breakfasts,

you can select eggs Benedict (with hollandaise sauce), eggs Florentine (with spinach and hollandaise), and Crème Brulee French toast (with vanilla bean custard). When you bring the children, three kids’ breakfasts are offered. Beverages include tea, sodas, herbal teas (hot or iced), hot chocolate, several juices, and good, strong, hot black coffee!

Later in the morning a rou nd m id-d ay, you can stop in to Mul’s @ Amrheins for lunch, which we’ll report on in the near future.

We’ve already used the word “traditional” in this review, and will continue to do so. We arrived at Mul’s @ Amrheins before 7 a.m. A rerun of the hockey playoffs was on the dining area’s TV – the Canucks vs. the Blackhawks – which was followed by news and traffic reports from all around Boston. Set in a dining area more than a century old, that’s “traditional”, as was the original

Mul’s across West Broadway.

T he brea k fa st broug ht back a lot of memories, which really wasn’t all that surprising.

We were served by Robin, a Mul’s waitstaff veteran whose cheerful efficiency is always a treat. And the food in Mul’s @ Amrheins tasted as good as it used to taste in the original Mul’s, because the kitchen is staffed with the same people – the cooks in Mul’s @ Amrheins are the same folks who prepared your breakfasts and lunches

in the original Mul’s kitchen.

Now that’s tradition at its best.

Mul’s @ Amrheins is open from 5 a.m. until 2 p.m., Mondays through Saturdays: Sunday hours are 7 a.m. until 2 p.m. It’s located centrally on public transport; it has its own parking lot next door if you drive. You can phone Mul’s @ Amrheins at 617-268-6189.

See you there sometime.

A s a lways, South Boston Online encourages you to patronize our local enterprises, including our local restaurants.

The White Lily of Andrew Square

Nicknamed a trumpet lily by some, this flower, like a morning glory, responds to the changing light around it. Wouldn’t it be nice if those indinviduals who drive through Andrew Square were equally as sensitive to the changing lights?

Howard Co. Clock Returns

The iconic Clock on West Broadway has returned to the top of its Victorian pole. The Clock was refurbished over the winter, was delayed by the pandemic, and was eventually remounted in the shade of the old locust tree in front of the Clock Tavern. And “iconic” is (for once) the correct way to describe such an artifact. But the Clock seems to be stuck again at approximately mid-afternoon or (very) late at night. Perhaps the gear-driven Clock likes certain canonical hours, such as “Nones” or “Lauds” (the photo was taken at 8 a.m.). Or perhaps our gas-lit, analog Clock is simply out of sync with the current digital era.

Refurbished Mayflower II Returns to Plymouth

by Rick Winterson

A

week ago Monday, on August 10, Mayflower II returned to Plymouth Harbor, where she had first been anchored since the 1950s, 64 years ago. The stem to stern restoration of Mayflower II had just recently been completed, a multimillion dollar project that extended over more than three years, which was successfully accomplished at the Mystic Seaport Museum’s Henry B. DuPont Preservation Shipyard in Connecticut.

On July 20, 2020, the ship was towed to New London’s City Pier. Led by Capt. Whit Perry, the 27-member crew trained and actually sailed Mayf lower II. Because of Hurricane Isaias, they moved her to the State Pier in New Bedford. On August 10, she embarked upon her voyage back through the Cape Cod Canal and up to Plymouth Harbor, where Mayf lower II now rests in her original home berth.

According to Capt.

Perry, Mayf lower II performed extremely well, despite necessary weather precautions, and the crew handled her with great expertise.

Photo of the Mayflower II arriving in Plymouth Harbor, taken by Michelle (Winterson) Urbanski from a kayak, with her brother John Winterson and her cousin Daniel Winterson.

On the final leg of the Mayf lower II’s voyage back to Plymouth, she left Mass Maritime Academy at 9 a.m. on Monday morning, August 10, and made her way through Cape Cod Canal under tow. Around mid-day, she had sailed to the channel off Gurnet Light, and then proceeded along this channel, sailing past Saquish Beach, Saquish Head, and the now defunct Bug Light

at the southern edge of Duxbury Bay. Turning into Plymouth Harbor around the tip of Long Beach, she then docked.

Welcoming crowds of boats, yachts, and kayaks thronged the edge of the channel. Comments after the Mayf lower II passed included a large number of compliments about the elegant workmanship that went into the restoration of Mayf lower

II and was noticeably visible to the vessels in Plymouth Bay. To say that the Mayf lower and the Pilgrims’ settlement in Plimouth Plantation are historically important is an understatement. Before going ashore at their first landing on November 11, 1620, in what is now Provincetown, they wrote and signed the Mayf lower Compact, which had echoes in later colonial governance, up to and including the U.S. Constitution. After more than a month, the Pilgrims left the Cape and began their first Plymouth settlement on December 18. That is by the Julian calendar then in use, so it was actually close to the New Year of 1621 by the Gregorian calendar we now use.

It was a hard winter – a remnant of the meteorological phenomenon called the “Little Ice Age”. When spring and planting time finally came, 50 of 102 original Pilgrims had died.

Aided by the Wampanoag tribe, Massasoit, and Squanto, who spoke English, the remaining Pilgrims planted corn and beans, and managed to survive.

Over 2,500 South Boston Residents Tested at Moakley Park

by Rick Winterson

W

e had a short interview with a busy Audra Russell, RN, Clinical Resource Nurse and the Test Site Supervisor.

She estimated that more than 2,500 people from South Boston had been tested during the nine days they were set up at Moakley – at 300 tests per day, the total might have been even higher. And Nurse Russell was quite pleased at the turnout.

The results were even better news – less than 1% of South Boston’s tests were positive for COVID19! You are aware that 5% positive is a kind of “break point”, and that 1% is really favorable. Yes, testing

is important, not only for detecting the pandemic, but also for finding out where it has not been active.You already know how important the COVID-19 precautions are: wash your hands often, don’t go out if it isn’t necessary (especially in crowds), wear a face covering outdoors, and keep a Social Distance of six feet or more. There is one more that South Boston Online would like to stress: Everyone should get tested. It’s simple and it’s free. The EBNHC is testing in Mattapan this week, and has a test site in East Boston open seven days a week. You are welcome to get tested at those places. Call the (617)568-4500 number to get yourself registered. Or check out test sites that are closer to South Boston.

Test site supervisor Audra Russell RN said she was very pleased with the South Boston turnout.

Councilor Ed Flynn to Call for Hearing on Water and Sewer Infrastructure in Boston

Councilor Ed Flynn

B

oston City Councilor Ed Flynn is filing a hearing order at this week’s City Council meeting to discuss our city’s water and sewer pipes, and measures to ensure the

safety of this important public infrastructure. Water and sewer pipes are critical in maintaining the sanitation, public safety, public health, and quality of life for our residents. The hearing will aim to bring attention to the importance of maintenance and the integrity of the system, as well as discussing any issues or concerns relating to the issue.

The City of Boston is one of the oldest cities in the country, and its water and sewer system began construction in the mid1800s. The Boston Water and Sewer Commission was created in 1977 to oversee Boston’s water system, as conditions of the pipes have deteriorated by the 1970s. As the city has undergone a development boom in recent

years, we need to consider how these added buildings and infrastructure can impact the maintenance and integrity of the system. When pipes rupture, it not only causes a flood, but can also affect wood pilings that support the foundations of many buildings in neighborhoods built on filled land. Any leakage can decrease the groundwater level that submerges these wood pilings, and cause them to rot and impact the buildings above. Moreover, there are many private alleys and sewers in the city where property owners are responsible for the maintenance and repairs of pipes, which can be costly and adding difficulty to the maintenance of our water and sewer system.

7

“Our water and sewer system is critical in ensuring not only the cleanliness of our water supply, but also the public health and safety of our residents,” said Councilor Flynn. “We need to ensure that our water and sewer infrastructure is well maintained, and that we have measures in place to make sure that the capacity of our water and sewer pipes are not overwhelmed as we add new developments in our city. I look forward to this discussion, and working with neighbors, the Boston Water and Sewer Commission, and other stakeholders on this issue.”

For more information, please contact Councilor Flynn’s office at 617-635-3203 and Ed.Flynn@Boston.gov.

Councilor Flynn to Call for Hearing on Pest Control and Illegal Dumping in Boston

B

oston City Councilor Ed Flynn filed a hearing order at this week’s Council meeting to discuss issues relating to pest control and illegal dumping in the City of Boston. The hearing is intended to discuss measures that the city can take to respond to the recent uptick in rodent activities, as well as ways to curb illegal dumping in our city.

There have been increased reports of rodent infestations and activities in recent months in the city, and the CDC had also warned that environmental hea lth a nd rodent control agencies should expect “reports of unusual or aggressive rodent behavior” due to restaurants and other food sources for rats and rodents closing down during the COVID-19 pandemic. In discussing the issue of pest control, we should also talk about illegal dumping, as trash that is not properly disposed of can attract rodents and cause other public hea lth issues, and there are frequent reports of illega l dumping in our

neighborhoods. This hearing will discuss ways that the city can adequately handle these issues, including increasing enforcement, and more public awareness and outreach about proper ways of disposing trash and preventing rodent activities.

“During the COV ID-19 pandemic, many neighbors have contacted me regarding their concerns about pest control and the prevention of illegal dumping.

With the noticeable increase in rodents and other pests in recent months, it’s important that we discuss measures for effective pest control and keeping our streets clean,” said Councilor Flynn. “These are important quality of life and public health issues for neighbors across District 2, and I look forward to further discussion at the hearing with city officials, residents, a nd civ ic org a n i z at ion s.”
