This is like telling someone who’s dying of thirst that they need to stop eating so much.

What a mess

Maybe more like removing an exit from a highway?

I did actually take pictures in a more residential neighborhood on the outskirts of downtown of the coolest tree house I’d ever seen!

This is exactly what I thought when I saw the render!

It didn’t actually say anything though. And increasing home prices doesn’t necessarily equate to “growth”.

I mean, it’s a matter of fact that housing prices in the area now are much higher relative to the median income than they’ve been for at least a century. Perhaps since 1630. It’s the opposite, actually. Everett, Somerville, etc. are doing they’re best to solve it, but it’s harder to jam more...

No it isn't.

So you honestly think the average renter in Boston pays a smaller percentage of their income on rent in 2023 than they did in 1993? If not, then in what measurable ways has life gotten better for renters in the city since 1995? The B&T article didn’t give many specific data points to that effect.

A majority of the city of Boston voted to keep rent control back when the state voted to end it.

For anyone who doesn’t like mashups or doesn’t have patience for a whole hour-long thing, here’s a piece of his studio work that I think fits the site’s theme: Man-Made Object: And here’s a cover by a different artist that I love of a song which fits the site’s theme: Skyscraper:
