This Week In Review July 30 to August 3

This was a busy week in the Fenway/Kenmore and we know it can be easy to fall behind on the news around town. Here are five stories we think you should take a look at:

1. : The Boston Red Sox and the Red Sox Foundation today announced that August is "Jimmy Fund Month," when the team and its philanthropic arm will support the partnership that began in 1953 by raising funds and enhancing care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

2. : Alternative news heavyweights, The Boston Phoenix and lifestyle mag, STUFF Magazine are merging into The Phoenix.

3. : New York City recently converted payphones into Wi-Fi hotspots, and City Councilor At-Large Felix Arroyo would like to see the same happen in Boston.

4. : Wentworth Institute of Technology is looking to build a seven-story student apartment building to house 305 juniors and seniors at 525 Huntington Ave.

5. : A recent post on the Atlantic Cities blog touted the power of tool banks: places where costly tools can be loaned out at low cost.
