Court raises Barbara-Jean appraisal in appeal
Barbara Jean Realty Co of Cambridge lost a year long appeal in Superior Court as Judge Wynn Underwood set Monument Plaza at 1 245 million dollars. The company sought 1 035 million after a 1973 reappraisal had lowered 1 25 to 1 18 million. The town insisted on safety and esthetic measures and threatened a tax break, with no side yielding.
