    How so? Do you know something? I don't know what's going on, but I can't stand all this arm chair speculation, especially when we don't have all the facts and figures yet.

    That's wrong. There's a full team of in-house maintenance and hort staff that work around the clock. They are the hardest working people I've seen. Met them on the Greenway on several occasions. The only thing that is outsourced is general litter pickup, grass mowing, snow plowing which is...

    Right. Central Park is mostly pastoral land with huge expanses of grass. It's much easier to maintain a wooded area than a highly manicured city block.

    You forgot about the operations staff: horticulturalists, maintenance personal (fountains, lighting, furniture, hardscape, trash removal, etc.), technicians. Clearly most people do not understand what it takes to run a park like this. The knee jerk reactions is "Fire everyone, they're all...

    Don't forget to add in the state mandated events and programs the Conservancy must put on as well as their youth apprenticeship program. You add all of this up, $4.7 million makes sense from my analysis. As far as pay, salary is right on target with other non-profits of similar size and other...

    That is a concrete (underwater b/c of rain) footing for new public art on loan from DeCordova. There is another square footing just out of sight. I think it is supposed to be installed in a few weeks.

    How is this organization corrupt? Can you prove it? It's fun to play the blame game.

    All of this talk seems so subjective. It's like say I don't like the taste of bacon, therefore it must be bad (okay, it's bad for you...). The point is that the neighborhood groups involved with the Central Artery completion got there wishes: a mediocre mish-mash of parks that tries to be...

    The New Retail Thread

    Apparently neighbors complained about the smoke from the Roadhouse and the owner decided to remove the smoker and revamp the menu...not a true smokehouse any more. Since then the food has gone down hill. They should have smoked the neighbors out. I swear I am not blowing smoke up your ...

    Fenway Center (One Kenmore) | Turnpike Parcel 7, Beacon Street | Fenway

    Re: Fenway Center (One Kenmore, Mass Turnpike PARCEL 7) Really? That is disheartening. The concentrated toxic fumes being released from these vent buildings is polluting the air just like a coal plant in the midwest. One way to reduce emissions is to install these scrubbers and filters...
