So what? Personnel management is the airline's problem, not the customer's. Yes, airlines do have to make money, but they happen to be enjoying record profits at this time (much of which is underwritten by many of the rules that make this sort of crap legal -rules and exemptions that would be a...

Per a recent article in the Boston Sun, the developers are lobbying for the adjacent BPDA owned parcel to the south (ward/parcel ID no. 03-06169-000), currently being used as a construction staging area, to be redeveloped into a park. Something tells me that the "dire need of green space" is...

There's a dent on the underside of the gerbil tube on the ER side of it, presumably from that lift. It appeared soon after it was finished, though I noticed the other day that repairs had begun on it.

Tell me about it, you'd hit the wall long before you hit the wall! Not to mention, it's probably not even 25 meters, which is about the shortest a lap pool should be.

Littoral rights in Massachusetts extend 100 rods from the high tide line, so depending on where that is (or was -not sure how that's determined on filled land), it probably falls within that zone.

I don't know about Harbor Towers, but I do know that the plumbing, IT, and utility conduits (with the exception of some vestigial floor sockets in some departments -most have been deactivated over the years) at City Hall are all external to the concrete structure.

Re: Offical City Hall Plaza Proposals I don't know if many of us have the brains to stomach such a pun.

Re: Offical City Hall Plaza Proposals Part of the problem is that under those stairs are two restrooms and a good portion of the Assessing Department.

I will second that. Their cheesy grits make for a great breakfast and their fried chicken is one of the tastiest things I've ever eaten.

I saw one of those going up in Dock Square this morning.

I went to the first scheduled concert at the then Fleet Center, R.E.M., in 1995. A friend and I were wandering the city and got off there to check out the new North Station, As we made our way down the stairs from the elevated Green Line station, a scalper was selling tickets at the bottom. We...

It's pretty solid because it actually is a hub.

And you got a photo of my roommate, who just started there.. Standing in the wine section.

It's the equivalent of the pavement arrows that show straight ahead and a turn with the word "ONLY" painted just before them.

So, do bougainvillea trees grow in New England?

The Viktualienmarkt? I was there back in September while construction on this building was in full swing. When I got home, I thought the same thing (now if only we could get Nordsee to open some locations here).

Rumor has it, a Sephora. I hope the rumor is wrong. I can't think of a more boring use of such a signature building.

Re: Amtrak / Regional Rail Discussion Thread I did it on my way to and from California in February of 2003. On the westbound journey, the Boston section was about half full, but the New York section was practically bursting at the seams. On the eastbound journey, both sections were pretty full.

I grew up in Burlington, which has its own (and usually abundant, recent drought notwithstanding) water system, the primary source being from the Vine Brook aquifer deep beneath the Great Meadow, just north of the Burlington Mall (and under the WRKO transmission towers), with the secondary...

Not to mention: I can't believe that those are particularly quiet buildings, either to inside or outside noise. Compare that to a house in Germany I stayed in recently. People on the top floor could hold a loud Schuhplattler party into the early hours, and anyone below them wouldn't hear a...
