This is a sad day in Boston. Our historic Littlest Bar will be destroyed in order to build 150 condos. It has been around for 60 years.

It was on the Littlest's stools that Jan Schlichtmann worked on the legal strategy in his now-famous civil action against W.R. Grace.

It has a capacity for only 38 patrons and the public phone is in the bathroom. Six people made it feel crowded and two bartenders have to squeeze past each other. ''You have a lot of Irish pubs that do open and make a lot of money, but this is the true Irish pub," Iacoviello said. ''This is the real McCoy."

Just seeing the photo makes me wish I could be there now. I love joints like that. How sad...

And they are getting fewer and fewer in Boston - making room for the bigger less at home feel of the neighborhood. Everyone wants to make a buck.
