Abolition Row Park, New Bedford: Work begins after 3-year delay

NEW BEDFORD The sign on the corner of Spring and Seventh streets declaring that Abolition Row Park was “Coming Soon” is finally living up to its name as work crews showed up this week and began construction. “It’s exciting in many ways,” said Lee Blake of the New Bedford Historical Society. “In three months we’ll have a lovely little park there.” “Abolition Row Park will be a tribute to New Bedford’s history as a major stop on the Underground Railroad, the first free home of Frederick Douglass, and a beacon of tolerance and safety for those seeking freedom,” said Mayor Jon Mitchell in a statement.

New Bedford Mayor, Chief Spinning FBI Crime Statistics [OPINION]

The dynamic duo is at it again, playing fast and loose with the truth about crime in New Bedford. Yep, Mayor Jon Mitchell and Police Chief Joseph Cordeiro, caught red-handed using fuzzy math in telling the tale of the city s crime rate over the last 10 years. You may recall last week when New Bedford Police Union President Hank Turgeon questioned why crime figures submitted to the New Bedford City Council during the budget process were so much higher than those contained in the FBI s crime statistics later the same year. Turgeon suggested the numbers were either inflated to support Cordeiro s budget request or deflated later on for public relations purposes. This seemed to happen over a period of several years, according to Turgeon s research.
