Warwick Place Will Have Outdoor Dining

The Zoning Board of Appeals unanimously approved a plan calling for a 32-seat outdoor dining area in the rear courtyard of Warwick Place.

A request for an outdoor dining area adjacent to the high-end restaurant expected to open on the first floor of Warwick Place sometime next year was unanimously approved by the Zoning Board of Appeals Tuesday night.

The meeting drew a crowd of town residents to the Selectmen's Meeting Room of Abbot Hall, many of whom spoke in favor of the outdoor seating area, which will be located in the building's rear courtyard.

Local attorney Paul Lynch presented board members with an updated plan calling for a 32-seat outdoor dining area. His request for a 40-seat dining area was shot down at a meeting in July when abutting neighbors and the owners of nearby businesses said they feared it would mean loud nights and limited parking.
