I share your impatience - - because this looks to be a truly milestone residential tower, and one that I think will be one of the most photographed buildings in Boston for years to come. It looks to me like it will be one of the most cosmopolitan style towers Boston has ever had. That being...

The issue is you make statements without giving reasons. That's Kindergarten level. You're not informing, just blowing off steam. That benefits no one here. Criticism is indeed important. We all can be very critical in here. But we give REASONS for our critiques. Otherwise, it is just...

Is every post you make the basically the same?

Hyperbole. It's perfectly fine filler for that area - - I just don't like the pedestrian unfriendly ground level - - that part is pretty bad - it says "Stay away".

Is that so? https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/12/12/sports/white-stadium-boston-public-schools/ ".....City officials say football will be prohibited at the stadium during the professional soccer season, which in 2024 is scheduled to run from March 16 until Nov. 3, followed by playoffs at the...

+1. Amen. What confused me is why you then posted "Understood -- just pointing out that the current large business in the area has already demonstrated the viability of ferry service from downtown/seaport to the location. It was also privately financed to get patrons to their venue (looking at...

Nowhere near as many thousands of people will want to go to freaking Franklin Park for a game as will want to go to the Mystic River Entertainment Zone port 365 days per year. There won't be nearly the thousands and thousands of residential units built in Franklin Park around White Stadium as...

Look at the NET benefits to the Commonwealth and the taxpayers of the project. And please show one area so far where Kraft is getting subsidies for this plan. He may after all, but what is the net? Would any smart investor give $1 of subsidy to receive $5 of revenue for a $4 net? Or would...

Your bolded part is ironic. Those 3 little taxis are not "mass" transit. That's a joke. And the casino is open 24/7. Not just game days. The comparison isn't exactly apples to apples. Regarding soccer stadiums, the only taxpayer financing is the $50 million for Wu's badly located NWSL White...

Great news , but that headline writer!!!!!! 259 is "nearly 300"??" That's a bit stretchy.

. That's a cute little dinghy, but won't fill the bill for the soccer stadium and the expansive waterfront development. More (and larger than that) will be needed. .

Mods: Could we please update the thread name? https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/10/18/sports/bill-russell-bridge-renamed-for-him-boston/

Which is why it would be a natural if/when the Kraft Stadium exists with the Revs and (inevitably, because it makes too much sense - sorry Mayor Wu) the NWSL team that they blare Proud Mary as the pump up music before home games in the future. That stadium would rock.

I'd be interested to hear the reasons for that? Are you talking about making it more sidewalk oriented or actually fully closing the street off to any vehicles as in playoff game time?

Hats off to ya. You're a pretty good sleuth!

Re: the above - this is pretty exciting - Canal Street is perfect for a slew of hotels - - this can enliven and affect a real sports/concert nightlife center for TD Garden. Also, it is smack dab next to a taller and new hotel proposal at 104 Canal (on the corner)...

Most of those renders angles looked good, but this one was boof:

Boston Globe this morning: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/10/11/business/braintree-south-shore-housing-project/ ".........The project is not fully approved yet; the Town Council still has to approve the zoning plan for the site, and then the Planning Board has to issue a special permit...

“Urban change”? It's literally one house with two units. I don’t understand how 147 Lexington Street is "urban change". .

I'm hoping that lab there is aborted forthwith. Demand is high - - for residential, not labs. And there is very little sense for a lab on the Greenway, ffs.
