The thing is, Boston is the 11th largest metro area in the country, so if you're counting "similar sized" then yeah, Philadelphia, DC, and San Francisco are all more highly regarded than Boston. If willing to go to the near abroad, then also Montreal.

My experience at the Swingers location in NYC was far better than PuttShack. It has actual good courses instead of just single shot gimmicks.

So true, the waterfall made it feel like a real place and now it's just dead.
I've been on this constantly on here but it is incredible how exclusionary the redesigned mall is. A sterile, uninviting place to be, full of stores with items out of reach for anyone but the top 0.5%. There's a major paradox with places like this. The rich obviously don't want to be bothered by mixing with the hoi polloi, so you tailor the space to their desires, but then of course foot traffic is so minimized that the retailers themselves are at risk. Simon made their bed with this one, now they have to lay in it.
K-shaped economy for the loss.
If only there were a plan to convert that corner of the mall into something we really need, like housing.
Malls in general are a thing of the past, and there seems to be a trend nationally into redeveloping them into housing. That would be a good conversion for this one.If only there were a plan to convert that corner of the mall into something we really need, like housing.
