Save That Stuff Tour

The Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA) and its partners from ABM had the opportunity to tour Save That Stuff in Charlestown, MA. Founded in 1990 by Erik Levy, Save That Stuff is a waste collection facility that offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional waste disposal methods. Save That Stuff helps educational and governmental institutions like the MCCA uphold commitments to corporate social responsibility, sustainability, and cost control. The MCCA has worked with Save That Stuff for 10 years to reduce our convention centers’ recyclable waste. In a typical year, the MCCA recycles an average of 774 tons between the Hynes and the BCEC with Save That Stuff!

John Barros takes reins at Convention Center Authority

Entering a prominent role like heading the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority — especially after the previous executive director’s high-profile departure — could provoke scrutiny.

 

For John Barros, who stepped into the role of the authority’s interim executive director Jan. 14, the inquiries even came from his own family.

 

“My mother asked me that question: ‘What are you going to be doing there? Can you explain that to me?’” Barros said in an interview.

 

The short version: helping Massachusetts to be a good tourist destination.

“There’s nothing more rewarding to me than seeing a city-kid on a boat for the first time — smiling, confident, and amazed after catching their first fish. To keep our program running, we rely on the generosity and support of programs like the MCCA’s Community Partnership Grants. Their commitment to community programs, particularly youth programs, makes our small operation and all those smiles possible.”
