    Time for this to shoot up quickly!

    Green Line Reconfiguration

    I have been in multiple cities which have side platform light rails running in the street on the side (i.e. Charlotte uptown) and everything operates fine. At first I pictured something like this as median only but I think side of road works great.

    Logan Airport Capital Projects

    Now that Terminal E's expansion is showing some signs of opening on-time next year - I am curious - could there be proposed new additions to Logan in the next 5-10 years? Is there room for it? Maybe there is room to add on to Terminal A satellite. Compared to other large inland airports (CLT...

    Whats left to build on?

    Interesting. Wasn't sure if it was different as it wouldn't require decking

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    I wonder what people think of this: Was it a missed opportunity to not have a parking garage included in the Union Square station/USQ property? What other termini aside from street-running Green Lines don't have parking? Again, maybe this was a victim of the cost-cutting resolution to get this...

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    Just boarded and all I have to say is: FIX THE FARE CONTROL PROCESS, ASAP. (I know it's the first day and people are adjusting) There were 15 or so people who got on at the same time and everyone was sharing 2 ticket machines, which are what's used for fare validation. If you have don't have...

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    Did the new tracks seem like they were operating faster between Science Park and Lechmere? And how is the speed for the section into Union?

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    It's a shame an escalator wasn't worked into this island station platform's design. This isn't the Loop -- and this was pitched as something that will attract ridership that would warrant an escalator for people movement and ease of a climb. Also, it seems like in 2022 and in the "hyped up"...

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    I was doing some research on the exact time of the opening of service between North Station and Union Square. On the Green Line page of the MBTA website it's indicating that the service of the green line will resume first thing Monday morning - because it says shuttle buses thru Sunday March...

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Due to the similar surroundings this has to MT, its height development is very similar to what I recall with MT. Once over 500 feet it sneaks up and feels massive. Once the cladding is up to the top it really stands out. But the first 500 feet really have a hard time standing out with so many...

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    This is a really interesting analysis... Looking more for the complexity of something like this, while assuming it would 99% never happen. While this is crazy, it also reminds me of something you would do in a city-building video game (thus arguably God mode). I think an urban ring Northeast...

    Raffles Boston (40 Trinity Place) | 426 Stuart Street | Back Bay

    This is one of those "statement" buildings which has my non-architecture-buff friends and family starting to comment on this and ask "what's that new building creeping up on the Hancock??". These types of buildings, a lot of the time because of their location in the skyline, really start to...

    Lyrik Back Bay | 1001 Boylston Street (Parcel 12) | Back Bay

    Seeing this from this angle as well as from the Boylston St section in the Fens near Tasty Burger really is exciting, knowing that it adds to the western Back Bay skyline.

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    I am curious if this is feasible for this thread or if this should go in the God Mode thread... A connection of a green line SL1/3 conversion under Boston harbor to East Boston. I understand how massively expensive this would be and probably not ever having support - but I am interested how a...
