    Atlantic Wharf (née Russia Wharf) | Atlantic Ave | Waterfront

    Re: Russia Wharf This doesn't make any sense. Boston has the largest skyline in New England. Are you thinking that Providence, Manchester, Portland or maybe Worcester has a larger skyline than Boston?

    North Station Expansion Project

    I like the renovation as well, although I can't understand why they haven't dug a concourse from inside N. Station to inside the T stop. I would think that it would have made sense to do this when they put they green line under ground or when they renovated N. Station.
