QUINCY – A pair of Quincy roads are set to be named for two military generals with strong ties to the city as part of a new bridge and park project underway downtown.
City councilors Monday night voted to name two new roads being constructed as part of the project General McConville Way and General Joseph F. Dunford Drive. In the theme of the bridge and the park, we found it appropriate to honor two of the more modern day generals, Mayor Thomas Koch said. It kind of has a nice touch to it. Both of them were sons of veterans and came from pretty amazing local families.
