Among those affected by the Boston Marathon bombings last week were the more than 400 businesses forced to close their doors during the ongoing investigation on Boylston Street. Injured workers, blood-stained lobbies, broken windows, and tens of thousands of dollars in damaged merchandise are just some of the challenges facing businesses in the aftermath of the bombing, but today marks the first phase of the reopening process as business owners and residents are allowed back into the area.
