The IAG reviewed the coop agreement awhile back. Nothing changed since then and it was then executed. Some on the IAG need to understand the A in the acronym. They advise, not decide. Not liking the agreement is not the same as not reviewing the agreement. There were never 'ramps'. The...

the xpressway is the extra 25 to 45 minutes?

Is it consistently specific areas causing the extra time?

in 2019 they were replacing the viaduct in Chelsea I believe. Either way, you have to be careful using daily traffic volumes and equating that to 'traffic is worse'. adding volumes at off peak times will give you higher ADT, it doesnt make traffic worse, necessarily.

you'll have to start by 'proving' this. From actual traffic count data volume, peak hours are near where they were but it then tails off much more rapidly than pre covid (ie, a 4 hour count volume is less now than it was before). also count wise, the PM peak hour occurs earlier now that it...

it means the residents of new developments wont be eligible to receive RPP stickers.

its also presuming the city wanted/would allow bigger footprints, which is not the case. thats not how it works though. there arent residential units on the ground floor and all of these buildings have set backs above the podium. the number of residential units arent impacted by the parking...

Sidewalks are wider. Cafe zones are included in addition to that. Complete streets doesn't mean ignoring cars, whether we want it to or not. Don't assume it's parking. Curb use is needed unless you want the activity occuring in the travel lane. Also don't assume the bike lane isn't straight...

'they' is the City. its from the PLAN Dot Ave study and yes for the reasons you mentioned. It is not under the control of the On The Dot project though since the realignment is on the east side of Dot Ave.

its all the same development. title of the thread is misleading. BPDA has it listed as 475-511. Phase 1 of the master plan are the 4 buildings here: the entire PDA site plan:

and owned by USPS.... that is coming.

designed and constructed to be able to take out every other level of the garage and convert to occupiable floors

Slides are here. https://www.mass.gov/doc/north-washington-street-bridge-public-information-presentation-111423/download Switch happening between now and Christmas, which is the schedule that was given last October, so that's good to see. Must have been an efficient meeting. I showed up just...

all the garages? there is only one and it was built that it could be converted into a building should parking demand go away in the future. You should see the PDA from 2001. Legit suburban office park with 2 above ground garages along Rutherford where the Harvey is now and Hood Green is planned.

Pavement markings are down. 1 lane outbound, 2 lanes inbound.

There are meetings this week for updates. Sidewalk looks pretty close to opening, which is on pace with Oct 2022 timelines. Project complete includes removing the temporary bridge. That was never the opening date.

most everything in this picture supports the station. vents and emergency egress on the left, staircase just inside the building on the right. no way for store frontage here. the buildings also needs loading unless you want it occurring in the streets as happens for all the older buildings...

So you want more cars in the area?

420 was built as of right based on the old (as of Wednesday) zoning. This is what we would have gotten everywhere west of Rutherford without PLAN Charlestown. No open space, limited ground floor activation.
