42 Lomasney Way

[1] Located on nine hundred square feet of land to the west of TD Garden, the building was constructed in the 1870s at 42 Lowell Street.

When originally built, the building was constructed alongside thirty similar brownstones, none of which survive to this day.

Over the years, the building was recorded as having upwards of fifty residents, including immigrants from Ireland, China, and Russia.

[3] During the 1950s, the West End was considered blighted, and proposals were drawn up to redevelop the neighborhood.

[1][3][4] Following the redevelopment of the West End, the building was occupied for some time by an associate of the Angiulo Brothers, which was a leading gang in the North End until the Winter Hill Gang decided to run rackets in the area.
