Caitlyn Carolan’s resume includes a host of achievements that qualify her to inherit her family’s restaurants in Worcester.
Her mother, Madeleine Ahlquist, though, knew her qualifications years before she graduated from Bancroft High School and earned business and interior design degrees from Syracuse University.

With 36 Becker College buildings, Worcester neighborhood faces uncertain future
WORCESTER As Becker College s impending closure looms over the Elm Park neighborhood and Worcester, nearby property owners and city officials hope that the college s property is taken over by responsible owners. Each campus is an economic engine in and of itself, Timothy P. Murray, Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce president and CEO, said, The loss of Becker both in the Highland Street, Elm Park neighborhood and Leicester is a blow to both the neighborhood and regional economy. The disposition of assets is going to be important to try to make sure we are collectively trying to infill the neighborhood in a way that supports the neighborhood businesses.
The former Boys Club building in Worcester s Lincoln Square is being proposed for redevelopment as part of a 95-unit senior living facility.
The project would be built by Boston-based WinnCompanies, the same firm that created the Voke Lofts apartments a block away and the Canal Lofts on Water Street. The development is slated to begin next year.
As a first step, Winn needs City Council approval to construct a new five-story addition to the old Boys Club to include 64 of the project s units. Some of the building would rise over a road tunnel that passes under Lincoln Square, for which Winn is proposing to pay the city $100,000 for what are known as air rights for building above the roadway.
