BOSTON - The North End is full of shops and restaurants with a lot of history, and now an aspiring business owner is trying to bring a new industry to the neighborhood.
It's not cannolis...it's cannabis, and a vacant storefront at the corner of Hanover and Commercial Streets is sparking quite a bit of controversy.
"It's a bad idea, it's a bad location," said restaurant owner Damien DiPaola.
The company Bay State Herbal Solutions has submitted their plan to the city in hopes of winning their approval for the store.
"I think CBD, THC, whatever gets you through the day is a gift," said a North End resident named Betsy. "Why not? We drink wine, we drink booze."
