Just a quick update, but this really caught my eye:

Investor team in talks to buy downtown Boston Filene’s site - Boston.com

I guess a Target won’t be that bad in downtown crossing - thankfully its not a Walmart. IKEA would have been fun - imagine the traffic nightmare!

There’s a Help Wanted sign in the window here at Metroblogging Boston. This will probably be your one opportunity to join the team this year. If you’d like to join up and write about Boston, please Click Here To Apply.
