    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    They quietly canceled extending the closure to Lechmere this weekend.. Not sure what that means about any work done.

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    The Chair has a background with the T and an impressive executive leadership resume, and the Secretary has a history in planning. Outside of that, it is all representatives (local city leaders (good to have), union/trades (good to have), banks/finance (good to have), and law (understandable to...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    It's good nobody was hurt and this was a brief interruption, but I do find it ironic Amtrak was delayed 10 minutes by this and the MBTA 30...

    Metropolitan Storage Warehouse Redevelopment/Renovation (MIT) | 134 Mass. Ave | Cambridge

    I was expecting a glacial pace on something like this. Exciting to see it moving..

    Haven't looked at LA, but this is really apples to oranges. The bridge collapse in Philly was "fixed" by filling in where the bridge was with soil, blocking off the road underneath for months/years to come until a long term fix is implemented. There's really no T alternative to dumping dirt...

    Updated Arborway design: Overall looks better. They split up the single building into a storage building and repair/operations building, and from what I can imagine, they reduced some square footage in doing so, but aren't noting any difference. Timeline: Concept design completion by...

    I think this is the first hint someone in this administration is hinting at changes in revenue sourcing... Positive direction, but 7 months isn't enough time to get things in place..

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

    Really exciting to see this wrap up - that plaza space looks great especially when you consider where it is. I still wish they went with the original green facade. I get comments from friends that these are "just two more ugly buildings." I think some color would've gone a long way.

    Somernova | Dane Street | Spring Hill | Somerville

    I'm thinking along the lines of this... I wouldn't call it DOA necessarily, but there is a LOT of community opposition (freakouts) regarding this development online/on local facebook groups - it will definitely be pretty different when it's built. "Provision space for a station and station...

    Not discrediting her, but there's a good amount of fluff in this writing, I have to say... The former secretary was not "forced out," and as far as we are aware, there was nothing going wrong or sour with Fiandaca's leadership (with Tibbits-Nutt as their deputy, I should note...) and a lot of...

    City Hall Plaza Revamp | Government Center

    Brutalism + fall is always a personal favorite of mine. Would still love to be for this all to be replaced by low-mid rise development...

    William E. Carter School | 396 Northampton Street | Roxbury

    It is specifically designed to serve highly-disabled students in small numbers. It's a highly-specialized, meticulously designed, and very expensive project. I'm surprised Perkins+Will doesn't have much out on it yet..

    MGH has definitely rekindled some discussion, I haven't seen much about MIT however.
