It looks like a shopping center just west of Boston may be getting substantial renovations, and with it, some new restaurants.
According to a couple of articles in The Boston Globe, plans have been submitted for upgrades to the Chestnut Hill Shopping Center on Route 9, with the possibility of dining spots being added to the redeveloped and expanded complex. Based on design plans posted within one of the articles, it appears that renovations would include a new three-story building, improved lighting, changes to landscaping and walkways, and the possible addition of a new movie theater. Neither article mentions the names of any restaurants that would be going into the upgraded shopping center.
The Board of Aldermen's Land Use Committee is voting on the special permit for the project sometime next month.
[March 26, 2012 update: The Chestnut Hill Shopping Center project is moving ahead, with a big step coming this week when, according to the Brookline TAB, the old Macy's building will be torn down, making way for a new building that will include restaurants, specialty retailers, and a new cinema.]
[November 29 update: An article
in the Brookline TAB indicates that the Chestnut Hill Shopping Center is going to be
renamed "The Street."]
