Instead, Malden will have to get used to referring to the areas as the Richard C. Howard Park and the Robert “Bob” Rotondi Baseball Field, respectively, according to a statement issued by the Mayor’s Office on Tuesday.

Howard - who still serves as town manager in Winchester - oversaw an organization-wide rebuild of Malden Public Schools, in addition to construction of a new senior center during his time in office. He also made parks a priority for upkeep during his tenure from 1996 to 2012.
For his part, Robert “Bob” Rotondi was a legendary Malden baseball coach.
