Opinion

Cutter, J.

The Authority, by petition under G. L. c. 80A, seeks to establish its right to take by eminent domain certain land and buildings in East Boston (the locus) adjoining the Logan International Airport (the airport). The locus is owned by R. S. R. Realty Company, Inc. (R.S.R.). The petition recites that the Authority on December 21, 1967, had adopted an order announcing its in[546] tention to make the taking. A copy of the order is attached to the petition. The locus and the airport areas in its vicinity are shown on the plan herewith, for the most part traced directly from exhibits in the case. R.S.R. in its answer denies that the Authority has “the right ... to take ... its land.” The trial judge, after hearing only [547] the issue of the Authority’s right to take the locus, concluded that no such right existed. The case is before us on the Authority’s bill of exceptions.
