Staff reportsPrint Story | Email Story
NORTH ADAMS - A series of motor vehicle break-ins prompted Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts' Director of Public Safety Joseph Charon to release a statement concerning on-campus security this morning. According to the statement, four break-ins have been reported at MCLA since last Wednesday. "In all four incidents, the vehicles were parked in a resident student lot and the list of items stolen out of them includes money, CDs, and electronic equipment," said Charon in the statement. "Campus Police is currently conducting an investigation into these crimes." Charon urged the campus community to lock vehicle doors, limit the number of valuables kept inside and remain alert to any suspicious activities happening in parking areas. "Remember, safety is everyone's responsibility, so let's work together to prevent crimes like these from occurring on campus and help keep MCLA a safe place," Charon said.

New North Adams Restaurant Approved for Liquor License

By Tammy DanielsiBerkshires Staff
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A new restaurant on Main Street, a provisions shop and a convenience store all got the nod from the License Commission on Tuesday.
 
Siblings Colleen and Sean Taylor are expanding their cuisine empire yet again with the establishment of Main & Mill in the old TD Bank. They were before the commission to apply for an all-alcohol license. 
 
The building is owned by Ginko on Main Street LLC, which has granted 20 years exclusive possession of the property to Latent Builds as the developer. Jack and Suzy Wadsworth, behind Ginko, are development partners with Salvatore Perry and Karla Rothstein of Latent.
 
The bank closed in early 2021 and purchased by Ginko late that year. Plans for the property unveiled three years ago envisioned a restaurant, retail, a park and rooftop bar. 
 
The building's hosted some pop-up eateries and is currently under construction for the new restaurant. 
 
Colleen Taylor said the restaurant will be open seven days a week serving lunch and dinner, and be open early for coffee. 
 
"It's not going to be a very big restaurant. It's about the same size as Trail House, except for Trail House has a bigger patio, so about the same seating," she said.
