The Old Colony Housing Project is a 16.7-acre public housing project located in South Boston, Massachusetts. First built in 1940 as a cluster of 22 three-story brick buildings housing 873 low-income units,〔(Rosso, Patrick, "2nd phase in Old Colony makeover is progressing," Boston.com, Jan. 23, 2013 )〕 it is one of the Boston Housing Authority's oldest developments. ==Location== Old Colony is roughly a triangle, bordered by East 8th Street, Dorchester Street, Old Colony Avenue and Columbia Road. It adjoins a traffic circle to the southwest, and Babe Ruth Park, a youth park with baseball fields, to the south. Across the street from Old Colony, on the rotary to the southwest, is where James "Whitey" Bulger and associates Buddy Francis and Kevin Weeks owned a liquor store and where Bulger headquartered his organized crime ring.〔(Baker, Billy, "Old Colony gets a bright new facelift," ''The Boston Globe'', March 21, 2012 )〕 He grew up in the nearby Mary Ellen McCormack housing project, renamed the Old Harbor housing project. Buddy Francis was later murdered by Stephen "The Rifleman" Flemmi and John Martorano, on the orders of Bulger. The liquor store, formerly South Boston Liquor Mart, is now Kippy's Wine and Spirits.〔http://www.flickr.com/photos/eoconnor/5532590471/〕
