That would be Beautiful! Make it USEFUL - not empty Potemkin Village.

Agreed, smokestacks are far more visible……not as visible as during their glory days when they actively belched emissions that poked holes in the ozone layer and damaged the lungs of the humanoids living around it…… but even today when they are inactive and empty they are indeed tall, so Everett...

I'm waiting for the "Tall Smokestack" post to come any minute now.........

Great improvement! 2019 view...

+1 agree with "no". Worst fake Boston accent EVAH. Embarrassingly bad. And I loved Robin Williams. It is what it is. If Damon wants to build a shrine to his movie, let him pay for it 100% and the annual maintenance.

Whether the math semantics change from 13.25% to 15.41% is not the point (most people understand that)............ the central question remains, why is this developer in a powerful rep's district getting $13 million for something every other developer in Boston has to do? (and higher percents...

OK, I have questions……. Last non-paywalled info I saw says 543 units, 74 of which are income restricted. That’s slightly under 15%. Is this a bad prededent for this politically connected developer in Moran’s district to be taxpayer paid for what is under the minimum standard expected?

Enjoy! (y)

I’m enjoying the debate about Tatte. But wondering why does Dunkin Donuts (the Papa John’s of Donuts) get a free pass when there are practically 3 on each block in Boston? Sorry if it offends the home team, but That shit stinks. Even their once vaunted coffee is no longer great.

Good morning, Pittsburgh!

Psst, NWSL team - run, don't walk, away from this for Kraft's stadium in Everett.;)

But what about the diapers!!!!! :poop::poop::poop::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

....and you, obviously cannot tell the difference between your personal opinion and hard data. (And, btw, I personally agree with your OPINION about the societal negatives of a "haves and have nots" bipolarization - - the difference is I recognize it as an opinion). You're giving opinion, I...

I hear ya, BP7, but we aren't even talking about "400 per year" at the moment. We are talking 400 overall (just PROPOSED). The actual to complete amount of that may be 40-50 per year. It just ain't happening at the moment. And the buildings stand empty (and will get worse as office lease...

That's EXACTLY my point! The % affordable requirement should be dropped for the more difficult Office-to-Residential in Downtown ONLY (not for new construction). Office-to-Residential is NOT an issue to the Fens/Back Bay/Eastie/Everett, etc. They thrive and aren't turning into empty office...

60 Kilmarnock Street in the Fenway is actually soon to open by itself with 440 units, and it's not earth shakingly huge. 412 units TOTAL for the downtown is chicken feed. And those units are just PROPOSED in the over one year (July 11, 2023) since Wu announced the tax abatement program. How...

Going from Eastie, Chelsea, Everett, Dorchester or Allston downtown isn’t that much of a haul. Especially if the Blue/Red Connector and other advances can be made. The developers of brand new residential downtown should be made to adhere to the affordable unit %’s. I’m just talking about the...

Perhaps Everett wasn't consulted enough.
