    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    Looking at FlightAware schedule from yesterday October 25, Aer Lingus flies two A-333s, and Delta flies a B-763, BOS_DUB daily. All wide-bodies. Maybe Boston-Edinburgh would be a more promising route.

    Gillette leaving Southie.

    My recollection for why Gillette continued to have a very large manufacturing plant in South Boston was because the plant functioned as a test-bed for highly automated, manufacturing methods, machines, and processes developed by the R&D engineers. The engineers' offices are literally next...

    Back Bay Infill and Small Developments

    Re: the lack of progress. Possibly when they demolished the old building, they found structural deficiencies in the brick wall of the American Ancestors building? The top-to-bottom bracing below the old roof line suggests there is a concern about the stability of the wall(s).

    Blynman Canal Bridge Replacement | Gloucester

    It was first built in 1636, and is less a canal and more of a cut between the tidal Annisquam River, and Gloucester Harbor. https://goodmorninggloucester.com/2020/04/30/the-cut/ Years ago, I've taken a fair-sized power boat through The Cut; it can be tricky when it's not slack water, and the...
