Monday, April 23rd, 2012

… We know its been an eyesore,” Brown, the Executive Broker of ERA Kirsch Real State, whose office sit across from the project building, told Waltham Patch last week. “We just want to start cleaning up the area.”
Renovations are scheduled to be completed in one month, Brown said.
While Brown said he does not currently have any new tenants lined up for the building, Compustar will be moving into 567 portion of the building, from its former 565 location. The Tiki House portion of the building will not be renovated, Brown said.
Once completed, Brown said he would like to have a bakery locate in the building, but said it is “virtually impossible,” without requesting a change of zoning rules. The City Council would have to approve such a change, according to Brown. 
Brown also ruled out several types of potential tentants, including, nail salons, hair salons, barbershops, a conveinence store or massage parlor.

Boston Massage Parlors: Council Looks to Bring Massage Parlors Under City Control

Thursday, April 19th, 2012

City councilors want more municipal control over licensing massage parlors after two remained open even after employees were arrested for offering sexual favors for cash.
Council President Robert Maiocco brought a resolution forward, asking city department heads to craft an ordinance that would bring massage therapy licensing under city authority.
The state’s Consumer Affairs Division of Professional Licensure currently handles the licensing of such establishments, but that isn’t enough Maiocco said during the council’s Tuesday night meeting.
“They just don’t have the personnel, in my opinion,” Maiocco said.
The resolution was passed unanimously by the council.
Councilor Rick Caraviello said businesses are able to skirt the state’s licensure officials by offering “body work,” instead of massage therapy. The difference: body work has no therapudic value, he said.
