Bull Market<br />
By any metric, MarketStreet is a smash success. That is borne out by the numbers – tax revenue<br />
from the development is double the projections – as well as the fact that finding a parking space can<br />
be a daunting task. The place is teeming with people eager to shop, or to eat, or to just look around<br />
and see and feel the buzz.<br />
One of the many highlights of the MarketStreet story is the number of women who have launched<br />
businesses there. Women have definitely cornered this market as businesses such as Grove Boutique<br />
& Cafe, Scout & Molly's, Pink Parkway, Southern Tide, Pretty Poppy, Fit Revolution or Solstice<br />
Power Yoga, have added spark and vitality to MarketStreet.<br />
Read Gayla Cawley's story on the phenomenon and then you might want to check out some of<br />
these places.<br />
On the economic development side, MarketStreet has succeeded beyond anyone's wildest dreams,<br />
and while that has not translated into lower residential tax bills, it has provided money for the town<br />
to pay for much-needed infrastructure without seeking overrides.<br />
Otherwise, says Selectman Phil Crawford, "we would have had multiple overrides and layoffs."<br />
Thomas Grillo has the story.<br />
Bill Brotherton profiles Steve DiFillippo, the king of the Davio's restaurant empire. DiFillippo used<br />
go sledding on the hills of the Colonial Golf Course. Now, his very successful restaurant sits on that lot.<br />
Bill also has another profile — this one on local Renaissance man John Michael Williams, a<br />
musician and songwriter who has earned national acclaim.<br />
Now . . . off MarketStreet.<br />
Growing up, it was hard to avoid Eddie Andelman. He was a pioneer of sports talk radio and while<br />
discussing, and often lampooning, our local teams he also made it clear he loved Chinese food.<br />
Now come sons Mike, Dave and Dan. You perhaps know them better as the "Phantom Gourmet"<br />
team. The program started in 1993 with the initial concept being anonymous restaurant reviews.<br />
Hence, the name.<br />
Dan, and then Mike (who prefers to work behind the scenes) joined the show and it became a true<br />
brother act.<br />
Bella diGrazia has the story.<br />
Elsewhere, peek inside a house on Lowell Street in our "House Money" section; get a look at<br />
what's hot (literally) in the line of cold-weather fashion on our "Style" pages.<br />
Thor Jourgensen has a story on Gary Green, who has capped off a successful real estate career by<br />
going back to school to study woodworking. He never had time for it while working, but now he does.<br />
Finally, and you'd be surprised perhaps, Lynnfield has, over the years, become a magnet for<br />
professional athletes. For that, and other tidbits of information, see "5 Things You Didn't Know<br />
About Lynnfield."<br />
Here's one thing you did know: The holidays are coming. Enjoy them.<br />
