    I agree. If MAGGLORIODONEZ continues to do this, can the Mods please take a careful look at it?

    Your opinion. And I get it, you're new here- so welcome, honestly. In the meantime, if you're going to state an opinion, people here appreciate you giving your REASONS for the opinion. Otherwise, it's just a spitball. And if you actually READ the list of things above that this development...

    Some concerning recent context: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/03/16/business/lab-space-boston-empty-real-estate/?p1=BGSearch_Overlay_Results "......But for each of those there’s a project like Watertown’s 66 Galen St. or a pair of towers along Middlesex Avenue just outside Somerville’s...

    https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/03/19/business/retail-back-bay-rivian/ Rivian locating there is absolutely BRILLIANT (that is if Car Gurus survives longterm). Being able to chat up the co-tenants can't hurt. The Rivian exec who got that done deserves a raise. A rendering of the multi-level...

    Lab Building (née Hotel Hampshire) | 34-40 Hampshire St. | Cambridge

    Heads should roll about this one (figuratively, folks). The people should demand names.

    1400 Boylston Street | Star Market & Gulf | Fenway

    Re that very declarative second sentence - there are many proposals for financing (just look through this forum). There are scores of 50+ unit residential projects currently under construction and getting financing everyday throughout Brookline, Allston/Brighton, Revere, Everett, Somerville...

    I’m 100% with those neighborhood voters. With the housing crisis the city has it is inconceivable why THIS development 2.4 acre spot got a 60% residential requirement wiped away. Simply wrongheaded. This thinking, repeated over and over, is economic suicide for Boston.

    Per square foot, this may be my favorite new downtown Boston development this year.

    Allston-Brighton Infill and Small Developments

    Given the completely bricked up side, I'm betting they are showing they expect that only one story building not to be long for this world. My guess is that they sending a not too discreet message.

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    I clearly wrote "One side is a B-. The other is a D+". B- is not a disaster. But c'mon. Damn. That CORNER of the building - in that distinct location - should be a civic energizing urban placemaker......not an entrance to a maximum security prison.

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    There should be retail dominating that street level. One side is a B-. The other is a D+. This is smack dab in Maverick Square across from the Blue Line Station. There is NO EXCUSE for that type of uninviting street level fortressing. Seriously, FUCK THAT DEVELOPER for doing that in THAT...
