Ten reasons why I love West Roxbury
By Papa Lee
10. Billings Field
9. Phil's Barber Shop
8. The view from the water tower at Belleview Hill
7. The Middle Eastern bakeries on Washington St.
6. The VFW Parkway is the prettiest roadway in Boston
5. You always know where your politicians are (shaking hands in Roche Brothers
parking lot)
4. The sign of the patting chicken at Fontaine's (the chicken is terrible,
but the sign is great)
3. There's no place safer, nicer or more calming in the whole darn city
2. Three of the four best liquor stores in Boston are here (Macy's, Gary's
and Blanchards)
1. It's where I live
