I recommend that the parties consult and seek approval from the Salman family to honor Scott Salman. Scott was a great member of our community and well respected Boston Firefighter who passed away to job related cancer . If the family approves of this and it wins the honor I recommend donating the prize money to a charity of their choosing and/or the Boston Firefighters Children Fund.

Reasoning: 30 units, 130 seat restaurant, Republic (the restaurant) is synonymous with the word “Society”

The Commonwealth ( community of shared ideas) the restaurant is the Republic – a theme!
The New England or just New England (as it sits where New England Auto Body did for many many years) The operators helped a lot of us bring our cars back to life after many a bang up over the years-great guys Mike Ritz and Paul Boyle, etc. who would be thankful for the building being named after there business they ran so well for over 40 years!
Great choice, Rich Evans! As the wife of Mike Ritz, there is a certain partiality on my part; however, setting that aside , I think “The New England” is an apt name, and you have my vote! Also, thank you for recognizing the important work they did not only for many satisfied clientele , but for the community, as well, in their sponsoring of the “New England Auto Body” youth hockey team for many, many years! Bev. P.S. Mike’s longtime partner and friend is Joe Keating.
I’m Mike’s sister and agree that some kind of homage to it’s former structure would be nice. Since many crumpled cars were restored at New England Auto, how about some of the following suggestions:
Impact Place
Restoration Village
The Tin Knocker
The New Englander
Wheel House
The Settlement
Wachtower
Republic Crossing
Dotoctracy
YUPPIEVILLE
“Revolution”
Sticking with Boston’s history in the development of the Republic. You could also then use the name as a marketing pitch…”Experience a Revolution in living” etc etc
