This one is on Tremont Street in Mission Hill, across from the Tobin Community Center.
ClearChannel has 30 donated ClearChannel billboards around the city.
Buyback Billboards unveiled
Mayor Menino, Boston Police Superintendent-in-Chief Albert E. Goslin, Deputy Superintendent Darrin Greeley, and Gun Buyback activists met on Washington Street in Roxbury, near Egleston Square, to thank ClearChannel and unveil the first of 30 donated ClearChannel billboards around the city.
Representing ClearChannel was their Boston Outdoor President Drew Hoffman, accompanied by his family.
Media coverage included Fox 25, The Ten O'Clock News (WB56); NECN, 7News and others. However, the Herald and Globe did not print coverage of the event, and the Globe got the number of guns received this week completely wrong (they reported 36!), in a mention of the Buyback in a story about a Friday night shooting.
