Today, Mayor Robert Sullivan was proud to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony for The Anglim, Brockton’s newest transit-oriented residential development at 93 Centre Street. Once considered Brockton’s first skyscraper, at eight stories, it is still the tallest building in Brockton. The Anglim, along with the Petronelli on Petronelli Way, were restored by Concord Square Planning and Development, Inc. We thank company president Mr. Ted Carman for the investments he has made in Brockton and for restoring the beautiful historic buildings. Also at the event were Massachusetts State Representatives Gerard Cassidy, Michelle DuBois, and Rita Mendes; City Council President Moises Rodrigues; City Councilors Jeffrey Thompson, Jack Lally, Susan Nicastro, and David Teixeira; City CFO Mr. Troy Clarkson; and Director of Planning and Economic Development Mr. Rob May.
