This is a BCDC meeting in which plans for the new Parder School building are discussed.

They never have. I remember when Jordan Marsh proposed its ne building on Washington St. It was 2 stories! The city persuaded them to add a third story which is just a facade.

I don't see how constructing a new arena would disrupt the T Orange Line.

When I heard that Lord & Taylor was closing, I had hoped that Nordstrom would lease the building for a Boston store. Alas, it was not to be.

I liked it better the way it was. Now it is just another glass tower...with a touch of red.

"...affordable housing project that will be located just south of Boston in Chelsea" Chelsea is north of Boston. Who hires these writers?

Lightview and the 840 Columbus buildings are/will be owned by ACC, not Northeastern. Although both are built on land that Northeastern owns and will continue to own. That gives the university some control of the use of the buildings. It has to do more with Northeastern's attempt to house...

Drone fly around and through of the CDS building.

It may be mentioned in the submission, but I assume that BU will do one tower at a time. Each tower would need to be vacated in turn. Does BU have an extra 600 beds in other dorms to accommodate the displaced students?

I was about to post "Lipstick on a pig" but the picture is better!

And some people wonder why it is so difficult to build in parts of Boston....and so expensive.

That seems to be the requirement these days. Maybe the initial designs cast too many shadows! :rolleyes:

I looked at the ACC LightView website. It says that the building is open to students at Northeastern University and Boston University. I thought that it was exclusively for Northeastern students. Will this building be exclusive to Northeastern? "Find your place to shine at LightView...

There has never been a T bus route along that stretch of Revere Beach Parkway.

Very nice! It will make a good addition to the Northeastern campus when Wentworth inevitably merges. ;)
