True, forgot about that! Those were hard tickets to get this year. I'm sure they will be next year too.

Didn't see this coming... RI gets UFL team - to play at Centreville Bank Stadium starting Spring 2027. There will probably be some overlap with the RIFC season, so it'll be interesting to see how they handle that. Between this, RIFC, and URI, they're doing a good job of keeping the place occupied.

I know this isn't what you mean, but I had to laugh because this is the location of the brothel that was raided last year. So in a way... But it would be nice to see this stretch evolve back into a more urban form. A little bit of height wouldn't be bad along N. Main either.

Meeting tomorrow on the proposal for 1183 North Main St. Replaces a surface lot and small single story building. Seems like a no-brainer.

RIPTA ridership is significantly down: https://www.apta.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/2026-Q2-Ridership-APTA.pdf I don't doubt the cuts have had a significant impact.

That hole was infamous in New Bedford. The original building (the Keystone Building) was demolished in 2004. There were several proposals over the years, but none ever gained any traction. It's great to see it filled with actual urban development. Combined with other urban developments and...

Should be fun to watch progress from the train.

Fantastic, build it yesterday. Between Dye House, Dusty Planet, Siren Spirits, etc., it's really evolving for the better. This type of infill will only help move it along. Great for Olneyville. Too bad Wes's couldn't make it work, but hopefully someone can do something with that space. It...

This. This is not part of Davis that needs help becoming a better urban environment. It's very good already. By all means, slap a 20 story mixed use tower at the old Rite Aid site and 2 more on the surface lots along Day St. Build a ~40 unit residential on the parking lot behind Dragon Pizza...

It was fun during the World Cup, and it is fun when they’re an occasional event held there. But most of the time, it’s a swampy goose poop filled lawn. I’d trade most of it for a repurposed, recreation-focused Kennedy Plaza

Yeah, it's a pretty easy one-stop trip from Boston. Nonstop is great (and admittedly surprising on United), but hardly a nightmare.

I don't know if I'm reading it wrong, but it looks like Mumbai is the largest market to BOS with 74,418 rt passengers annually. That breaks down to 204 passengers per day, 102 each way. Seating capacity is 255-260 on AI's 787s. Maybe I'm missing something in the data, but that doesn't seem like...

To me, this seems like a fantastic location for this project. Waterfront, right at a major entry/gateway to the city, close enough to the city center without taking up urban land that would be better suited for housing/mixed-use, etc. I wonder if it makes anyone feel better about the proposed...

Thank you both! Don't know why I didn't think to check the Development Mapper. But yes, that's exactly it.

Agreed. And prior to this, I was actually in the BRT camp as I felt it was the more pragmatic approach in this instance. But RIPTA's own numbers favor LRT to the extent that I don't think the BRT options are even worth considering. And that's not even factoring in the impact that LRT will have...
