    So next time I go by your house it'll be ok to do something like throw a rock through your window because it's not vandalism just harmless fun? Cool!

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    Ideally it would be kept and repurposed in some way for station signage and maybe restoring the top rectangle. The continuity from one era to the next would be a nice, small gesture on the T's part.

    Thanks. What does it do that the other purpose-built equipment can't do?

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    This is interesting. The front bumper of the truck was given wheels and adapted to fit the tracks so the truck can do whatever it does.

    Somerville Infill and Small Developments

    Attachments are placed in the seams where the blocks meet on the lower level of blocks but they're small and they don't protrude all that much. Where this damage happened is kind of high up so they probably didn't think it was reachable and decided it didn't need protection. This is not harmless...

    West Branch public library addition, finished and open. The skateboarders didn't waste any time vandalizing the place,

    Cambridge Infill and Small Developments

    St James Place, close to completion. An Army recruitment center. Not the tenant I would have guessed to move in here. Public courtyard. Potentially nice place but the trees are stressed and they're not looking good. Sidewalk trees are bigger and much healthier and as someone mentioned they...

    30 Leo | 30 Birmingham Parkway | Brighton

    When it was still Hi-Lo Foods in 2005. Love the pointy clock. And a similar roof at present day Harvard Quincy House.

    Bulfinch Triangle Infill & Small Projects

    They are responsible for Hotel 1868, Mass Ave in Porter Sq. https://www.hotel1868.com/?&msclkid...c77053662d6b1f35737b32708f2acef3&gclsrc=3p.ds It turned out alright and seems to be of decent enough quality but a couple of strange things happened during construction. Maybe half the foundation...

    WBZ-TV/CBS Studio Development Project | 1170-2000 Soldiers Field Road | Allston

    Tangent. As part of the obligatory community benefits "extortion" that will be inevitable with this, a modest proposal but something with real value: restoration and repurposing of the original Institute of Contemporary Arts building directly across the street in Christian Herter park. This...

    Kendall Common ( née Volpe Redevelopment) | Kendall Sq | Cambridge

    Simple, straight-forward, no gimmicks. Boxy, but an elegant box. Fine high-end modernism.

    Alta Revolution (XMBLY) | 290 Revolution Dr. | Assembly Sq | Somerville

    Wow...this is bad, embarrassing, insulting really. They couldn't even be bothered phoning it in, they just texted it in. Cheap-ass developer: Hey, how can we do that breaking-up-the-mass thing while spending the least amount of money? Shameless "architect": So glad you asked, here's how.
