1 - Number of totally soaked Saturday Boston Globes, inside a red plastic bag, left in a driveway.
15 - Architectural lights on the front of 77 Main St. Among these lights are four different kinds to illuminate signage, the facade, the walkway and the plantings. More than a bit of thought went into this lighting plan. Nicely done.
