To the Editor:
I am writing this letter to encourage Dorchester residents to strongly oppose the request by Bay Colony Associates, Boston Bowl, for two digital billboards on a winged monopole at 820 Morrissey Blvd. The location is next to Interstate 93, directly across from the Neponset River Area of Critical Environmental Concern and highly visible from Tenean Beach, Victory Road Park, Squantum Point Park, the Neponset Greenway, the Dorchester Harborwalk, and large parts of Port Norfolk and Neponset.
I urge my fellow Dorchester residents to oppose it as well. Digital billboards are ugly, visual blight. It is environmentally and socially unjust to allow them to be built in Dorchester.
