Even city officials have long proposed alternative measures, such as relocating some of the homeless to a hotel inn.<\/p>\n<p>However, it seems many cities want no part in being the new location for a recovery center, citing concerns around the health and safety of those being transported. The stretch was originally meant for healing, but has instead become the hotspot for opioids.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomething certainly has to be done. Boston really needs to work with Mayor Arrigo here in the city to make sure they find the right situation here for these folks,\u201d said Craig Tornberg, a neighbor in the area.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, neighbors have continued to show frustration over the city\u2019s lack of communication and urgency in regards to how they\u2019re going to clean up the area.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This is the same Quality Inn used in April 2020 as a quarantine site for covid+ residents of Chelsea and Revere (which I covered 4\/9\/2020)<br \/>. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/boston25?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@boston25<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8lFgoM4VzG\">https:\/\/t.co\/8lFgoM4VzG<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Evan White (@EvanWhiteIII) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EvanWhiteIII\/status\/1440610875971280898?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 22, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/doj-pledges-changes-after-fbis-mishandling-of-larry-nassar-case\/\">DOJ Pledges Changes After FBI\u2019s Mishandling Of Larry Nassar Case<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Red Line subway car, known as the T in Boston, crosses the Charles River March 12, 2001 in Cambridge, Mass.
