New Haven road held stake in hotel and street plans
New Haven road officials told the City Council last night it had acquired all the preferred stock of the Hotel Westminster and owned two of three Boylston street buildings slated for possible takings if Arlington street extends to Columbus avenue. Laurence Minot said he bought two Piedmont street parcels near Ferdinand street likely affected by widening. Critics argued widening Ferdinand street would ruin the Amory garage and questioned its public need.
