Re: 45 Province St Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, interesting!

Re: Congress St Garage is being sold. I think I'm the only one who actually likes the Aquarium garage. I don't know what it is, but something about it fits with the greenway and surrounding buildings. I can't put my finger on it, but there's a sensation when seeing it. I can't describe it...

Re: W Hotel But is that because that's all that Boston has to offer in the neighborhood? Cuz when I see other proposals outside of theater and dining, there's always a dispute as to why we shouldn't have anything different. I want to be proud of a city that offers flavor. A city that...

Okay, so you just proved my point! The display for WGBH "IS" on the turnpike. Have there been a plethora of car accidents on the pike because it served as a distraction to drivers? No there hasn't. So how is it that the display on the Garden is such a concern? It's just a bunch of...

interesting point

LOL, I like that response

First off, you're jumping to conclusions and making insinuations that are completely far off. I never said skylines make great cities better, nor was I implying that. That's like me assuming that according to your statement, you think every city with a great skyline must be a lousy city (which...

Nope, it's just the top of the old john hancock, the weather beacon (zoomed in photo)

I suppose the aviation association (forget the correct name) has a say on how high buildings should be because you don't want planes crashing into buildings that are built too high in it's path of flight, however, it is a nuissance to see this city that I was born and raised in denied world...
