40 years ago - Boston became a 2 newspaper town

[Anthony Abruzzese]

Those street numbers are closer together than you might think. They aren't
separated by city blocks.

The old WHDH studios were next door to BC High, at the bottom of the inbound
ramp up to Kosciusko (sp?) Circle. The Globe is on the the other side of
Morrissey Blvd, between the bottom of the outbound ramp and the turn
around/entrance  for Umass/Boston and the Kennedy library.

In the mid-70s, some people used  to walk from the T to UMB, though most
used the shuttle. You could see each building from the other quite easily
since the area wasn't as built up as it is now.

So WHDH really wasn't across the street from the Globe?
