    This is so beautiful, I decided to make it even better:

    General Boston Discussion

    Does anyone know of a photo (or where one can be taken if not with a drone) that replicates this famous before/after of the Big Dig? It's used often in the online discourse around the benefits of removing highways but is laughably out of date for 2024- the trees have filled-in so much by now...

    That intersection is forming up to be a very attractive little node of density, and the ground floor retail at 2 Alpine street is going to add a lot to it. If they can find the right tenant(s) then I'm sure the area will buzz all year.

    Biking in Boston

    Does anyone know the status of the project to extend the Northern Strand trail to Nahant via Downtown Lynn? The latest I can find is that construction was "planned before the end of 2023", but I am assuming it has not even started yet due to the lack of chatter on it.

    Whatever happened to this design? It looks so much better than the planned lab... thing.

    Malden Rivers Edge Orange Line infill station and transit-oriented development

    I've seen the idea of a new Orange Line infill station near the intersection of Rivers Edge Dr/Commercial St and Medford St in Malden floated a few times on this forum, though not quite at the level of seriousness that I think such an idea may warrant, so here's my offering in that direction...

    Downtown/Financial district infill and small developments

    I toured a few different spaces in some of the early 20th century office buildings centered around Washington St, Arch St, Milk St, Devonshire St, etc. a few months ago as part of a relocation effort at my company. All seemed deserted. These are the places that in a more favorable interest rate...

    Biking in Boston

    The entire thing looks compressed. I sort of have the feeling that those involved in producing these types of renderings implicitly underestimate the true width of vehicle lanes, and then just scale the bike lanes until they look right.

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    Looks like one of those potential-TOD parcels is being discussed at the planning meeting this Thursday: Cambridge Day Link. Specifically: "The two committees hear public comment on a proposal to change the zoning at 200 Inner Belt Road, East Somerville, which has been used since 2014 as a...

    Somerville Infill and Small Developments

    The top two thirds of this structure are pretty pleasing but wow what an egregious waste of ground floor retail potential on Somerville Ave. I mean, it’s just completely monolithic and uninviting. The next door neighbors do it better:
