Uploaded by igoroamandreport on Sep 7, 2011
http://www.igorkharitonenkov.com - My Dot Tour is a multimedia, youth-led walking tour of Fields Corner in Dorchester that presents a narrative of the past, the present, and the future of this diverse and exciting neighborhood.
Website: http://www.mydottour.org | Call or text: 617-300-0368
Theatrical in nature, the tour performances aim to enrich public life and foster youth leadership in Dorchester, celebrate the recent history and current amenities of Fields Corner, and provide a platform for sharing ideas about future improvements. Tours feature select notable sites identified and researched by area teens with help from archives, residents, and local institutions.
To enhance the tour experience, each My Dot Tour stop hosts a street sign with unique location information accessible by phone at 617-300-0368, and via quick response (QR) code, an information-rich code that can be scanned using a smart phone. The tour website, http://www.mydottour.org, features audio, images, and text about each site.
My Dot Tour emphasizes participatory involvement in the creation of a living archive of Fields Corner sites - public comments about the past, present, or future of each location can be phoned in or sent via SMS and through a variety of ways on the website - and provides information to the public well beyond scheduled tour dates.

Had cousins who lived on Dix St. Spent many happy times there about 45 years ago. Cannolis at 25cents a piece at Bombaderi's Bakery, best in the world. Matinees at E M Loew's theater for $1.75, saw the original release of Night of The Living Dead there and. Bowling at the Lucky Strikes Lanes on Saturday afternoons. Hanging out with the guys at the ball field. Church at St. Margarets on Dot ave.on Sunday mornings, with everyone in their finest. Everyone knew everyone, a real sense of community.
