Thanks for the tips!

Quick question, I am looking to bike into the downtown area, maybe somewhere along Charles St near MGA and lock my bike up so I can go do some exploring. Am curious if I should be worried about anyone trying to cut the lock, steel the front wheel, or otherwise vandalize the bike. It's an...

Judging from how it measures up to the similar in height Millennium tower, this one appears to still have a ways to go before topping off.

Thx!

Does anyone know how tall the structure is now? Guessing it has to be over 400' at this point.

Funny how Winthrop looks shorter in that pic when its supposed to be a few feet higher than Millennium.

For the 10th time, please show me where I said that homeless people don't deserve to be sheltered; you either can't read or are putting words in my mouth. My point all along is that if you give housing to someone who is severely addicted, or has severe mental illness that you may see around...

Please show me where I stated that I didn't want these people being provided with housing/shelter? My true interest lies in actually trying to give these people hope, a future and a chance to rejoin society instead of just shoveling them off into housing so that we can feel better about our new...

It is a proven fact that the vast majority of people you see living on the streets under THOSE conditions made not one, but many poor lifestyle choices before ending up in their predicament. The people you are referring to who ran into some bad luck or financial woes, who are actually trying to...
