Good news — there will be drunkness once again. It looks like Talk of the Town has been cleared for its move to Atwells, after an early dissaproval, setting up a nice Lilly’s–TOTT’s nexus of dirty hipsterdom at Eagle Square:

But now the director of the state Department of Business Regulation, in an appeal by the bar, has overruled the license board. Talk of the Town can move to 529 Atwells, in a storefront of a multifamily house across the street from the Burchfield law offices, director A. Michael Marques has decreed.

Atlantic Mills, from Art In Ruins

I’ve gotten wind of a rumor that Olneyville Discount Furniture (green awning) which currently occupies 3,000 -4,000 square feet of Atlantic Mills may be moving to Eagle Square. Run Away Jim wrote about a Projo article that says PriceRite will be moving from it’s current location adjacent to Atlantic Mills to Eagle Square to fill the void left by Shaw’s. Which makes we wonder where the furniture store would fit in at Eagle Square unless the former Shaw’s location was going to be subdivided. It also makes me worry about what will happen at Atlantic Mills if the larger retail spots start to empty out. I’m hoping for the world’s largest Dunkin’ Donuts, which will would be literally around to corner from everything.
