This is an out-of-date render. MBTA headhouse connection to Draw 7 Park is neither designed nor funded at this time. The rendering in Cooper's post is the latest.

Why stop there? Huntington Avenue and the Green Line E-Branch have slowly demonstrated what a truly transit-oriented development corridor looks like when you leverage the transit availability and walkability of the corridor. Every single rapid transit corridor throughout the city--and...

While I don't 100% disagree, I will add that it's refreshing--dare I say exciting--to see a timber-frame high rise on the horizon. That and the conversion of another surface parking lot into an activated public realm improvement is promising to see.

I vote for 15-20 more of these citywide annually through 2040, please. #buildmorehousing

Imagine arriving on a domestic Delta flight to gate A22 and then needing to transfer to an international Delta flight at Gate E16. Even if/when they do link Terminals A to B post-security, I cannot imagine a Logan Airport that discontinues shuttle bus service between their domestic and...

IIRC the Commercial Triangle zoning plan includes a SW-NE pedestrian spine either along Garden Street or Boston Street (or between them) through the heart of this neighborhood. Further, the buildings are designed as such to include or convert to ground-level commercial space as demand enables...

I just boarded the 109 at Sullivan toward Linden. 5 passengers from Harvard leg got off, 6 stayed on, and 46 more boarded. This is definitely a well-utilized service!

You piqued my curiosity, so I mapped the location and notice a few things: 1. This driveway serves 3 properties, not 1 (317, 321, and 333 Granite St./Rt. 37) 2. People exiting the driveway by car have a dedicated signal opposite South Shore Plaza Road. This probably serves the dual purpose of...

My proposal from a couple years is looking a bit better, isn't it...

Incidentally I snapped a couple photos of these yesterday morning (vinyl, tarp-like material).

If NHDOT decided to create/boost a rail and transit division arm or identify a willing-and-able transit agency in-state to operate a rail transit service (i.e. Manchester Transit Authority), they could technically fund Capitol Corridor relatively quickly if they implemented a funding mechanism...

Waiting for the MassPort Board slides from past few meetings to be uploaded online soon. I suspect these type of capital improvement updates may have been mentioned, so I guess we all stay tuned until then. It’s great to hear that the parking is full for Logan Express at three sites—that...
