The city needs some sort of sliding scale for affordable housing requirements- in prosperous economic times its higher and when the economy is struggling there would be lower thresholds.

Im curious what the Red Sox ownership group's goals are, short term, long term etc. The fan experience concerns are not what I was after here

Anyone else think the Red Sox sell off these plans or sell once they are built? That's my suspicion, curious what others think.

11-4pm. Coffee shop opens at 7. It's probably realistic but it sucks its not open later on weekdays

I think it has much less to do with this local development and more to do with their aspirations for buying more sports franchises. Rumors swirl of their desire to buy a nfl team, invest in the PGA, an NBA team, it goes on and on. The Red Sox are just another asset in their portfolio at this point

again, agree to disagree, the goal posts have moved several times, its fine

You're nitpicking so you can prove yourself correct. My whole point was while I AGREE WITH YOUR OVERALL CAUSE, you guys always manage to come across as extremist assholes and it hurts your cause. And you are continuing to prove my point. Railing against a minor side street and parking in...

That's one poll with a small data set. I'm not even against you guys but this stuff just proves how militant you are

I disagree, it doesnt come across that way at all to me. Agree to disagree

its possible I am misunderstanding, all I'm saying is the majority of the US population abhors bike lanes and the militant advocacy for bike lanes where they're not all that necessary in certain cases just works against the cause. Railing against creating a street with parking in between...

Little kids, old people, disabled people cant use bikes as transportation. When you're so resolute in your cause you can really hurt it. Perfect is the enemy of good enough is all I'm saying

I think you could make a case for this sure, but also Boston is just small physically. I was in London in the fall and it gives some perspective on what a truly large metropolitan city feels like, it feels very big!

This and the south end college I forget its name moving across the street it could really tie the room together nicely. This area is not very friendly as of now

Lex where are pics 4, 5 and 6 from? I dont recognize them

Im pro bike, I mountain bike as much as I can, I want there to more bike lanes where they are needed and if there were more on major thoroughfares, I would bike more often in the city.... I think these type of borderline militant bike lane opinions really hurt the overall cause. There's a fully...

I cant believe we're clutching pearls about the colorful corporate sign

The foot traffic was way, way up with the decorations apparent from before the holidays which was nice to see. There's one restaurant (bodega mexican speak easy type) in Echelon and that's it. I think once the harbor way across the street is fully open and people can cut thru to Congress street...

I never noticed they want to re-route D street, interesting. It makes sense with more density the existing weird intersection of D Damrell and Dot Ave would be a mess

I was disappointed to see the SOWA winter market had its last day December 17th and didnt run thru Christmas. Big swing and miss for me as I wanted to last minute shop there. The $10 entrance fee was a bit of a mental hurdle to get over but shopping in a less crowded, less insane and temperature...
