WCOP & WBZ

[Eli Polonsky]

I guess Allston and Brighton are considered to be areas,
or neighborhoods, within the City of Boston. 

I was always curious whether there was a distinct line
separating the Brighton and Allston neighborhoods, and if 
so, where it is. I didn't know it was (or is) specifically 
Everett St, but that is also claimed by a Wikipedia entry, 
which also claims that the line south of Everett St. runs 
along Gordon Rd. and Kelton St. (to the Brookline line).

Also, Brighton was annexed to Boston in the 1870s. Typo.
