photography by michael blanchard Spring iS Such a fun time in Boston. With so many things going on and so much to do, the streets literally come alive! from the Boston marathon and the red Sox home opener to all of the restaurants opening their doors and rolling out their patios, as well as wonderful events such as the Bcrf hot pink party, where i am honored to be one of the "men in pink": they all add up to the great sights and sounds of spring! Speaking of great sights, i recently had the pleasure of attending the fashion power play, benefiting the Boston Bruins foundation, at copley place, where the players' wives and girlfriends modeled spring's newest looks. then, i experienced the real "runway" at Qatar airways' Vip gala at the park plaza hotel welcoming our new friends to Boston (see page 130). also debuting in town this spring: a spectacular new clarke Sub-Zero and Wolf showroom in the seaport district (page 126)—perfect timing as we launch our premiere home issue (check out the expanded Space section), jam-packed with great ideas for your abode. happy spring. go Sox! from left: With David Ortiz at the opening reception of Moncler's first Boston boutique; on May 17, the Breast Cancer Research Foundation will honor Karen and Rob Hale at the annual BCRF Boston Hot Pink Party. 26 bostoncommon-magazine.com Follow me on Facebook at facebook.com/boston-common and on bostoncommon-magazine.com. glen kelley LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER
