  • Damaged Sign

    27 Shipway Pl, Charlestown, Ma, 02129

    Good morning to B311 and BTD for all you do for the city and its residents. On 13th Street (the address may show up as 27 Shipway Place), near the Charlestown Marina, boaters (with passenger-plated vehicles) disregard the "Commercial Vehicles Only" signs and park throughout the day. Someone went to the extreme and actually removed one of the signs. I found the brackets on the sidewalk but not the sign. Respectfully asking that the sign be replaced as soon as possible. The first attachment shows the remaining sign and the second attachment shows where the other sign was once attached (just below the "Fire Lane" sign). Thanks in advance.

  • Pruning Request

    584 E Third St, Boston, MA 02127

    Tree planted fall 2025 and not watered by contractor. Tree is still under warranty. If not watered, especially during current heat wave, tree will die again and city will need to replant another tree (this keeps happening). Can city alert contractor to honor two year warranty?
