Piper Prop Plane over Jimmy Magg's "Napoles" Restaurante Bar and Lounge - Boston, MA - Static Aircraft Displays on Waymarking.com

In Boston, in the East Boston section of the city, is a restaurant across the street from the Suffolk Downs station of the MBTA Blue Line heavy rail service, and at the corner of Bennington Street and Leverett Avenue.

This restaurant, known as Jimmy Magg's "Napoles" Restaurant Bar and Lounge, would be like any other establishment in a standalone building if it weren't for the rather large protrusion on the roof in the form of a private airplane by the main entrance. The plane appears to have its nose 'buried' in the roof, while the tail section is supported by metal rods and wires. On the side of the aircraft are the words, "Jimmy Magg's."

The aircraft is a prop plane from Piper company (not entirely sure since the front is not visible). The wings are below the pilot cabin and it has two horizontal tail wings and a vertical tail wing. An expert can identify it better - my best guess is a PA-28 Cherokee as per a picture on a Wikipedia.com page:

The S/N could not be determined from the ground. I attempted to find out using satellite images but either the number has been removed or the images have too much contrast to show a number.

The restaurant offers sit-down and take-out service, and also has catering available. It is about 5 minutes from Logan International Airport, but it is off the main road, Route 1A, so you might want to review the directions and map to get there (unless you are arriving by the Blue Line).
