James Hook and Company Up for Sale

James Hook and Company, a Boston seafood wholesaler and retailer that was destroyed by fire last May but continued operations in temporary digs at the site, is apparently up for sale.

According to the Boston Globe and several other media sources, the family that owns the seafood place is looking to sell the property, though it is still unknown whether they will stay at the present site.

The Globe mentions that ten developers have put in proposals for construction projects at the James Hook site, which is located at 15 Northern Avenue by the pedestrian bridge that goes over the Fort Point Channel along Boston's waterfront.
