    Third Square | 303 Third Street | Cambridge - Kendall Sq

    Re: 303 Third St (Kendall Square) Yes, and then the open space is part of the Volpe transportation building complex (i.e. the worst offender in Kendall Square).

    Northeastern eyes dorms

    This was Ron's reaction to the (white!) rendering in January, 2007. Ron, the splotchy red is your fault! Just kidding.

    Cambridge Infill and Small Developments

    I think the big building with the purple is bio-tech lab space built on spec. Note the banner advertising many hundreds of thousands of square feet of available. Everything about Binney St., with the possible exception of the small yellow residential building next to this one (part of the same...

    Madness

    And again, we're not just talking about people here, but also about the stages/tents/structures that are brought on the grass (with trucks and cars) left up for a little while, and then removed.

    Photo of the Day, Boston Style - Part Deux

    I usually hate "that's awesome" posts, but I have to say that Endus's photographs are beautiful. Nice work!

    Madness

    You guys are overreacting. The suggestion isn't to keep "everyday" people from using the Boston Common. Instead, it is to minimize the number of "special events" which occur on the Common, especially when there are more suitable locations elsewhere in the city. Every summer weekend...

    Infill MBTA stations

    I think this is a logical conclusion. Unfortunately, it is never as "sexy" to try to stimulate development around an existing station as it is to propose building a new one.

    Rediscovering the bus

    Vamoose was dealing with Cambridge, not Boston. 700 Atlantic Ave. is the address of the South Station Bus Terminal. Perhaps this is an agreement with Boston/the operator of the Terminal (I can't find on the web who this is) to load on the street because there is no more capacity in the...

    Rose Kennedy Greenway

    Why do the Haymarket vendors (there's nothing "pushcart" about them) get to store their stuff behind chain link fences next to the "Jewel" of the Greenway? The proposed parcel, even closer to Quincy Market and the Blackstone Block, makes a lot of sense for the program of this museum. Cambridge...

    Abandoned Sprawl Projects

    Horizon City, TX. My grandparents got suckered into a stake here. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=horizon+city,+tx&ie=UTF8&ll=31.678658,-106.163635&spn=0.071436,0.156212&t=h&z=13
