About a year ago, we reported that a landmark hot dog wagon in Boston was planning to open a brick-and-mortar restaurant in the Fenway section of the city. Over the past few months it appeared that this was becoming less and less likely, and now it seems that the chances of it happening are about zero.
According to posters on the Chowhound site, one of the people behind Boston Speed's Famous Hot Dog Wagon in the Newmarket Square section of Boston is apparently saying that they will not be opening on Peterborough Street in the "restaurant row" block of Fenway after all. An article that was written on this site in December of 2010 mentioned that Speed's had been looking to open along with several other restaurants on this stretch of Peterborough that burned to the ground in January of 2009, but now it looks like the plans have fallen through.
The address for the original Speed's is: Boston Speed's Famous Hot Dog Wagon, 54 Newmarket Square, Boston (Roxbury), MA, 02118.
