    3458 Washington Street | Jamaica Plain

    It’s certainly an upgrade over what is there. It really shows you how much stupid car parking takes up when you see how much space 7 spots takes up in comparison to a building that could house 100 people.

    The orange line is excellent these days. It’s about up to par with subway lines in other countries as long as you ignore the degenerates smoking on subway platforms.

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Those steps being fenced off half the year are a great example of how people are treated like crap in this country compared to cars.

    Jamaica Plain Infill and Small Developments

    If you are working age in Boston(the people this city desperately needs) you are screwed, because so much of the housing being built with public money is for those who are retired or never had a job.

    Franklin Park - White Stadium Renovation

    There is so many dumb aspects of this plan. The insane cost. The city giving control to a private company. Building two stadiums in the area at the same time for what is a niche sport in America. Cutting down dozens of trees. Bringing tons of noise into the park and neighborhood. Expecting all...

    The city of Boston is already paying for some bus routes to be free of charge. Start charging money for residential parking permits and stop having parking meters be free on Sundays. Start charging in the free city owned lots. Why does a neighborhood like JP have ZERO parking meters? That’s tens...

    Copley Square Revamp | Back Bay

    You are seriously arguing against block parties?! Especially on Halloween, the most dangerous night of the year for pedestrians? I can’t imagine you get invited to a lot of parties. Anything that takes Boston public land away from suburban drivers and gives them back to actual Bostonians gets my...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    When I think of an active urban look I picture something with tons of people walking around, not a gross empty highway.

    Lyrik Back Bay | 1001 Boylston Street (Parcel 12) | Back Bay

    Yes, this is urban as hell in the best way. Reminds me of something you'd see in Tokyo.

    The New Retail Thread

    Sad is a good word for it. I don't understand what would have to have gone wrong in my life to find myself drinking at a fast food restaurant, especially when there are tons of alternatives a short walk away.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    900 parking spaces next to the busiest train and bus station in New England. This isn't a serious country.

    Franklin Park - White Stadium Renovation

    Get used to it being closed to the public once the city lets a private corporation decide who can use it.

    North End Cross Street Boutique Hotel | 42 Cross Street | North End

    Love to see obnoxious NIMBY's lose.

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    The new park is pretty nice. Its completely protected around the perimeter with bollards and bike racks so turd drivers will have to go elsewhere to run down pedestrians and park on the sidewalk. This needs to be the status quo around the city based on the amount of terrible drivers and useless...

    Jamaica Plain Infill and Small Developments

    If you want to call out NIMBY's Jamaica Plain is the wrong place to do it. The Pine Street Inn is constructing a 200 unit building that will be transitional housing for homeless people. The only person who objected to it was a landlord who doesn't even live in JP. Put a building like that pretty...
