    Somerville Infill and Small Developments

    The family has every right to stay, but it's not going to be a fun place to live during or after the construction. 10 years down the road I hope it turns into outdoor space for the kids.

    New England Revolution Stadium | 173 Alford Street | Boston-Everett

    Quick get the shovels! (And the tyveks - that soil is going be be disgusting)

    Cambridge Crossing (NorthPoint) | East Cambridge/Charlestown | Cambridge/Boston

    Let's talk about the development in context with some actual data? Cambridge Crossing is a 43-acre mixed-use, transit oriented neighborhood made up of 4.5M SF development including 2.5MSF of office/lab space, 5,000 residential units and 100K+ SF of retail space once complete. Today, there are...

    Medford, MA Infill and Small Developments

    Really curious to see what Medford does with this and how it links up with the Air Rights concepts at Wellington from 3 years ago...

    10 years is a big difference Somerville.

    Suffolk Downs Redevelopment | East Boston/Revere

    I'm so disappointed in the pace of this project, especially at the Revere side where both the residential and commercial impact would have been felt immediately.

    Assembly Innovation Park | 5 Middlesex Ave | Somerville

    900 Jobs is nothing to sneeze at, even if move-in is still 3 years away. I'm glad these brand new lab buildings will get some use before they sit too long and decay. The construction of the Block 9 residential building across the street was supposed to start in 4Q2025 - haven't heard anything...

    North End Piazza on The Greenway | 198 Hanover Street | North End

    Glad its beeing updated. 2024 Plan vs 2025 Update - I much preferred those outdoor pavilions. Between this and the hotel proposal, my poor photoedit skills show this is a radical transformation of decrepit under-viaduct real estate.

    Medford, MA Infill and Small Developments

    Wow - at almost 8 acres that's a pretty big property. TBH, 289 almost seems not particularly ambitious? Also is right against the old ROW - I wonder if there was any conversation about the desired Greenway extension with the town?

    Greenway Residential Building | 55 India Street | Downtown

    Mild derailment... if we're going to squeeze in pocket parks, I hope we're actually using the largest extent possible to de-pave the urban environment where we can. That new park is a brutal offender of leaving 4 lanes of traffic that are severely underutilized for a pedestrian hub. It's...

    Assembly Square Infill and Small Developments | Somerville

    Is the "Overlook Plaza" code for an easier build of a headhouse connection due to the raised nature?

    Bill Russell Bridge | North Washington St.

    I do slightly miss the fear of bridge collapse on my daily run across it. The little viewing bump out in the center is nice - I wish more bridges had them. Both for the natural inclination to stop for the view/photos and just to take a tired break at the top.

    Fenway Corners (Red Sox) | 1 Jersey Street | Fenway

    I'd be with you for soccer/football where there are limited events, but there are 81+ games per year in a baseball stadium - another ~3000 seats at $40 face is $10M a season before playoffs, and that's just for baseball games without concessions.
