Jimmy's Harborside, one of Boston's most well-known restaurants, will not be rebuilt and will be replaced at its waterfront location by Legal Sea Foods.

The new restaurant will be the largest in the Legal's chain.

Owner Roger Berkowitz told The Boston Globe it would be three stories tall with 20,000 square feet of space.

Jimmy Doulos first opened the South Boston restaurant as Liberty Cafeteria in 1924.

It was expanded and renamed "Jimmy's Harborside" in 1955.

The restaurant was demolished in 2007 after its foundation began to crumble.

But the Doulos family continued to work with developers in the hopes of rebuilding and reopening Jimmy's.
