A Guide to the Food and Drink Vendors at the Speedway in Brighton | Eater Boston

"Set in the rehabilitated Charles River Speedway Headquarters at 525 Western Ave., I see the Speedway as a hybrid marketplace that refuses to be neatly labeled a food hall even though it functions similarly to places like Somerville’s Bow Market: a collection of independent food and retail vendors sharing communal seating and amenities. The project — a collaboration between the Architectural Heritage Foundation and the Massachusetts Department of Conservation & Recreation’s Historic Curatorship Program — centers on an 8,000-square-foot courtyard, preserves some historic elements of the original administration buildings, and is planned to include local food and retail tenants along with event and office space; openings have been rolling out since July 2021 after pandemic delays." - Eater Staff
