    Unions are Good! Or Bad!

    Maybe it was in the other thread but someone wrote that the protesters started yelling at 6 am and I wanted to correct them.

    Unions are Good! Or Bad!

    The protesters start at 7 am. They stop at 5 pm. Then they all get in their cars and drive back to whichever suburb they actually live in.

    Unions are Good! Or Bad!

    I am enjoying the pile-driving going on right now b/c it drowns out the Marriott strikers outside the Westin.

    The St Regis Residences (former Whiskey Priest site) | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

    Perhaps your point is well-taken but in regard specifically to the Mandarin Oriental, those authors were far from hole. Most people who bought there originally, and most owners now, are identifiable and aren't up to anything nefarious. Unless you consider owning the Boston Celtics or running...

    Do some building materials have better reputations

    I am trying to do research on something and not sure what I'm looking for or how to figure out what I want to know. So I'm writing this post, anyway! It has to do with what is used to build mid-to-high rise residential housing. In the Seaport right now, the Echelon Seaport is going up. It's...

    Boston and surrounding areas housing crisis

    The city isn't building "nothing but luxury condos". Total number of the "luxury" units in the city of Boston? Around 3,736. Total. And that's including buildings that have been around since 1981. During the past ten years, 1,600 units have been built - 160 a year on average. Four of these...

    Development Map and Chart

    Hello, fellow netters. I've been looking on the forum but not sure if we have it: a list / map of just residential developments inside "downtown Boston". Even better if it's just "luxury". On here, there are different versions of things showing different things, but correct me if I'm wrong...

    Amazon HQ2 RFP

    The President tweeted that the USPS wasn't charging Amazon enough to deliver the company's packages (he was actually criticizing Jeff Bezos, of course). Putting Amazon next to the new USPS facility in Boston would be a smart move, right? Lol. (Yes, I realize they wouldn't ship from their...
