According to Mass Highway, they will be demolishing the counterweight as well as some other things. The super structure is suppose to remain. Link

^Are you reiterating your point?

Heard something a while ago that the some of the blue gels for the Zakim lights were stolen by construction workers or some else with the project. The Globe had an article I will try to dig up. If you look at the lighting of the Zakim when it first opened, it was brighter...now it's kind of...

You gotta have balls cleaning the windows too.

Well now, that's just a little obnoxious.

12345 I think you are missing something. Most other projects have there own forum topic...but if you want to make a list, feel free.

Yeah, what's up with that? Some days we have too many posts to read and other days there's nothin' but tumbleweed around here. :shock:

Aren't there a few bars on that street as well? West Street Grille comes to mind and that gets pretty packed practically every night. Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers!

In addition, the developer is building a separate building full of affordable units for Chinatown - 56 I believe - on Oxford St, if I am not mistaken. Give 'em a bone, ya know? Oh, and vanshnookenraggen, they are integrating at least some of the old building on Kingston St into it.

I think this is an excellent project. It looks and sounds good, especially on the Greenway side. The document says the height will be 325 feet - the top of the highest occupied floor.

American Idol bullshit

And if you think about it, there may have been a second shooter from the grassy knoll or was it the book depository?

What's with the surface lot in front of the Paramount? Is that suppose to be Hayward Place?
