📰 News we're reading

• High-End Asian Grocer, T Market, Approaches Opening In Natick Mall – Probably (patch.com) — Natick shoppers can look forward to the long-awaited opening of T Market, a high-end Asian supermarket taking over the former Wegmans space at the Natick Mall this summer. The 75,000-square-foot store plans daily hours from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and will feature Asian meats, seafood, produce, pantry staples, and ready-to-eat street food options.    

• It's almost time to pay your last respects to South Natick Dam (natickreport.com) — Natick is moving ahead with removing the South Natick Dam and spillway, with a key project update scheduled at the Select Board’s May 27 meeting. Residents can expect a gradual drawdown of the Charles River, major grant-funded construction work, and a future riverfront park project that could top $2 million as the town reshapes this longtime landmark.
