Sat Sep 01 12:50:42 -0700 2007 2901673 11106 tatamagouche 3 2903291 The hotel is open, I've walked by it several times, haven't been in yet, so don't know about the restaurants. The website claims opening later in the fall for Shire's restaurant. Sounds like Clink is already open.

You can reserve on Opentable already. I also heard of a Lydia Shire involvement. is this true? Sat Sep 01 15:19:08 -0700 2007 2901667 106905 vinovino 2 2903613 Apparently; this is from the MGH email: The hotel will feature three separate restaurants: Clink, the hotel’s bar and restaurant, which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner; Alibi, a bar located in some of the original jail cells on the ground level; and Scampo, which will open later this fall and be run by noted Boston chef Lydia Shire.

Sat Sep 01 15:54:43 -0700 2007 2903613 13110 jpeso 1 2909394 Big article in the business section of the Boston Globe today about hotel, Clink etc. Tue Sep 04 12:03:22 -0700 2007 2901667 13202 emilief 2 2909571 http://www.boston.com/business/globe/articles/2007/09/04/hotel_aims_to_captivate/ Tue Sep 04 12:45:13 -0700 2007 2909394 106905 vinovino 3 2910701 This is one place I'm actually waiting to see. Don't know why but the very thought that the jail was reconstructed to accommodate a high end destination hotel while in a sense is a bit bizarre considering the history of the place..... still it's enticing. Make sure you scroll through the photos. Tue Sep 04 17:41:07 -0700 2007 2909571 75332 Gio
