From hockey to interior design
Boston Bruin defenseman Dennis Wideman has a new man cave, equipped with a pool table, an arcade-size video game and views of TD Garden. He recently refurbished his North End bachelor pad with the help of Waltham-based decorator Erin Polansky.
When I was traded here [from St. Louis], I knew I wanted to live in a place that felt like Boston, Wideman says. I like this place because it has exposed brick and beams. If Im going to live in Boston, I want to have the full experience."
Pictured, Wideman checked out the TV selections in his condo.
