if you are in the front parking lot along Rte 9 - you are in the Town
of Brookline
if you are in the bld or out back - you are in City of Newton
(basically - if you live in a City you vote for a mayor - if you live
in a Town, you dont)
https://maps.app.goo.gl/h81SmcfHkAhsvfgU6 - gonna guess that is a
Newton fire box - we can confirm that via their fire box map - hold on

- actually shows 9 fire boxes in 3 blds
this bld is in newton but is right on the brookline border along its
southeast side
MMAP shows 1 blue point here with addresses such as - 17 boylston st +
3A boylston st + 13 boylston st + 25 boylston st (12 entries) - there
are a total of 21 entries here - 6/7/2026 - also - 11 + 7 + 9 + 1 + 23
+ 21
this is the star mkt bld basically with some other businesses attached
and medical center entrance in the rear - per 2020 street view -

===========================
would be interesting to check the parcel data and the ? business directory ?
the goal would be to have a list of every telephone number that is
wired into that bld or group of blds

- just 1 blue dot here which apparently means that the phone company
just makes 1 drop to the building - ie - has just 1 cable coming into
the building - and there is equipment in the building which sorts out
the various suites and phones inside the bld
from the scannerist point of view - every one in the bld could be on a
different radio channel - maybe everyone in the bld uses the cellular
type two way radio systems now - so there might be absolutely nothing
to hear via a consumer grade 'police' radio scanner
======================
we need to check the fcc uls and the epa frs and any business listing
we can find for newton or brookline
what else could we check? maybe secretery of state business lookup?
