I had zero idea that area of Comm Ave was Boston's original Auto-mile. That location is a tiny weird Target now.

I think most big cities have had several places where the car dealerships congregated, than as time went on they moved. I know there have been at least four areas in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro where all the dealerships were, then they all moved to another location. There are still a few of the dealer buildings left in the oldest areas (like pre-1920), they're pretty ornate and some have the car names still showing in the decorative stone work on the front.

Yeah, apparently there was a bunch of cool dealerships on Comm Ave. It's a shame they're not around anymore.

I have all the original paperwork from Village Pontiac, including the purchase agreement, trade in information, the owners name and address etc etc.

I'd love to find some Village Pontiac dealer stuff. A keychain, plate frame, emblem or something.

Do a search on ebay for "village pontiac" and save the search. This way you'll get an email anytime an item is for sale that matches. It took 3 years but I finslly got a dealer emblem for mine.
