Northern Berkshire Community Coalition hosts forum

Print Story | Email Story
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - Please join the Northern Berkshire Community Coalition on Friday, May 8 as we discuss The Uniqueness of Fatherhood at our monthly Coalition forum. Coalition monthly forums are a vehicle to address current issues.

At the forum discussion about fatherhood, you can expect to create an awareness of prejudices against fathers by our institution, and brainstorm ways to engage fathers more positively in their children's lives. You will also hear and learn from state and national initiatives through the Responsible Fatherhood Movement, and take part in considering next steps in this process that might include creating a "fathering network."

We will begin, as always, with a round of introductions, followed by brief announcements of your upcoming events or new projects. Please don’t forget to bring flyers about announcements also, as there will be a display table for them in the center of the room. Childcare can be available for our meeting if you contact the Coalition office, 663-7588.

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.
