Hundreds of neighbors gathered at the former Dorchester Tire shop, now Dot Tire Studios, for a vibrant Food and Friends Festival—turning a once-quiet lot into a lively hotspot. Free food, a pop-up pickleball court, karaoke, and kids’ games brought families together, while local partners like Boston Little Saigon and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Dorchester showcased the area’s rich culture. The event’s success hints at more creative gatherings ahead, and the buzz is real: what should Dot Tire Studios become next for the neighborhood? #Cars #Dorchester #CommunityEvents
