Alright, you edited your post since I responded...so you just don't want any more jobs coming to the city. Is that it?

A corporate tax break in Boston is driving up real estate tax in Medford? If you don't mind my asking, how does that work exactly? How would a corporate tax break in one municipality directly drive up the real estate tax in another?

Are you giving your tax dollars to Amazon in a situation like this? Or are they just not paying $5 million in corporate taxes? The average salary at Amazon is $100,044 (including warehouse workers, who wouldn't be in this office) and Boston's income tax is 5.1%. In one year, the income tax on...

I get what people mean when talking about politics & Bezos, but anyone who's using that as an argument against Austin is insane. If anything, it's an argument for Austin because it's a liberal oasis of sorts and, along with already existing massive Google & Apple presences, moving more young...

I think many would say Texas is a biggggg, diverse place.

Yea that's...that's not good.

Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett A little reactionary, are we?

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District What a disappointment. This was supposed to be the blockbuster plot remaining downtown. It's just slowly degenerated with each phase.

Good lord, that's horrible...Baltimore's a city that should be so much better than it is. I'm not sure why you're trying to profiteer off their misery.

Haha yea maybe I will...it's depressing to see how miserable many posters here are, to be perfectly honest. I understand wanting thing to be as good as possible, because that's what I want too, but some can't be happy with anything.

I made it back to Boston a few weeks ago and was blown away by how vibrant the Greenway area has become. It's not perfect, but when I left Boston in 2011 it was a essentially a wasteland down there. I'm very excited to see how this area continues to progress as more development takes place.

I don't think I've ever seen that...looks great!

Agreed. They've always been two of my favorite buildings in the city. I love that the alleyway is going to be activated very soon.

I'll stick with Boston.

Congrats on the good work, dshoost!

Sorry to get off-topic and ask about the building, but is that the tower rising in the last picture, or is it going to be coming up directly in line with the crane?

Geez, that seems awful imposing. I think we should picket the developer and pressure them to develop a 4-story apartment complex filled with affordable housing.

Re: MassDOT Pike Parcels 12 - 15 | Boylston St. and Mass. Ave | Back Bay I don't post all that often--I mostly lurk & look at the purty pictures--but I've got to ask: why does it seem like there is a petty argument on every single thread? I've been on this site for a long time and I've never...

Re: 111 Federal St. | Formerly Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 Am I missing something? Or does that look absolutely nothing like the proposal?

Re: South Station Tower Oh...oh no...
