You know that hideous utility work yard at the eastern end of Memorial Boulevard? It's been an eyesore for years.
Well, it might get spruced up.
Mayor Art Ward said that he met with utility officials recently and showed them the condition of the property. He said he asked them to clean it up.
"They were most cooperative," the mayor said, and told him they would do it.
"That's very promising," Ward said.
Let's hope it's true.
As it is, that little yard mars the view as people approach Memorial Boulevard, which is one of Bristol's gems. It shouldn't be a mess.
