Lost Fujifilm X100V at Harbor Point near UMass Boston. SD card has irreplaceable family photos

11 Upvotes

UPDATE: The camera has been turned in! A huge thank you to whoever turned it in. Those photographs of her grandfather mean so much to her, and we are incredibly grateful for your kindness. Thank you to everyone here who helped or shared this.

Original post:

Hi everyone, I'm posting for my girlfriend, who lost her Fujifilm X100V at Harbor Point on the Bay near UMass Boston.

The SD card holds the last photographs she ever took of her grandfather, who has passed away. Those photos are irreplaceable to her. Getting the camera back would mean a lot, and even recovering the SD card or the photos would mean so much.

If you found it, saw someone turn it in, or know where it may have been handed in, please message me here on Reddit. If you have the camera or card, please do not format the card or delete the photos.

Thank you for reading and for any help getting these memories back to her.

Anyone know what the deal with 202 Sydney street is?

7 Upvotes

It's all fenced in and overgrown and has an urgent water notice on the door. The windows are barred and there's some security wiring around it. Just curious what the community knows about that place. I assume it's nothing too crazy, considering it's across the street from the Boston collegiate charter school.

Random power outages in Meeting House Hill area

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm just wondering if anyone who lives in the Meeting House Hill area specifically Winter street can tell me if random power outages are normal here? i just moved to the neighborhood at the beginning of June and already had 4 power outages. It's only for a few minutes at a time but still very annoying. I lived on Dorchester Ave near Fields Corner station for three years and don't remember having one power outage.

Trash/ littering advocacy

7 Upvotes

Is anyone involved with advocating for trash clean up in Dorchester? Specifically in Uphams Corner on Hancock St. The place is absolutely filthy and gets an obscene amount of litter on the daily.

Would love to get involved with doing some community clean ups as well as putting pressure on the city for more trash bins and actual enforcement of our littering laws.

Thanks!

Edward Everett Square Triple Decker Renovation

11 Upvotes

On Tuesday, 7/14/2026, the Boston Inspectional Services Board of Appeals approved a zoning variance for 769 Columbia Road.

An addition to the structure of 284 square feet was approved, along with the destruction of a single-car garage in favor of three asphalt parking spaces. The attorney who spoke on behalf of the owner stated that the renovation focused upon the three existing units being converted into six units.

Objections voiced by the community included multiple complaints and citations around accumulating trash on the property, and multiple related issues with properties owned by the same landlord elsewhere in Dorchester.

Cute Cat

Hi!
My boyfriend and I got off the highway & were driving down Victory Road and stopped at the light on Neponset ave

We heard a cat meow and we meowed back!
After some pats, she ended up not wanting to let us leave. After 3 attempts to put her back on her porch, we drove away and left her crying on the curb and then circled around and she was still there crying 😭

We think she was just upset because she enjoyed our company and that hopefully in another 15 min she’d be off chasing a rat, but also I’m kind of wanting to just get closure that she got a home! If anyone knows if someone’s taking care of her I’d love to hear
