This disk is on the northern side of Northern Ave in South Boston. It is set into the concrete curb several yards west of where the road curves to bear SE.

As an aside, this mark and the other Artery marks (69 and 79) I found is strange in that, although it is a MAGS disk, it is not in the MAGS database. Furthermore, unlike the other MAGS disks I have found on other occasions, these have the statement "For information contact Mass DPW Boston" imprinted on them. I suspect they may either be too new for the database or MAGS disks used by another agency for their own purposes.
