Clearly few discussions will ever be based on reality any more because somebody told the children at SSP where we are

You have 3 freshwater rivers draining into the same harbor. The change in salinity will obliterate the wildlife in the harbor and destroy its natural defenses. Goodbye marshes at Belle Isle and the Neponset River Estuary, goodbye game fish like striped bass. Hello dependence on machines. It may...

"The BT Group, led by Fields Corner resident Hiep Chu, gave the first showing of a zero-parking transit-oriented development that it is proposing for a vacant lot that it owns, 22 Freeman St., which abuts the Fields Corner MBTA Station. Hue Architecture’s Jenny Ha and Chu told neighbors that...

Which group has that on their agenda? Seriously?

If the skyline became iconic and helped drive tourism then it would be good but only one city on Earth has truly achieved that.

The trolley should be a single subway fare with a transfer. Back in the day it was free to and from Ashmont. Having either of those might help with ridership.

That's how the story goes I guess; blame the locals. But that is all we are hearing. Isn't it great that the PCC's are still alive on that funky little line on the edge of town? Isn't it awesome that it is actually a cheaper option than the bus?

Yes, I am telling you to disregard anything you have heard here unless that person has commissioned a credible independent study that is contradictory to the T's.

Yes there was a study that was the genesis of a well known plan that is already underway so the burden of proof is on those that disagree with its conclusions. In 2017 the T did a study about what to do with the line, if it should be a bus, train, or trolley- and then implemented a plan to...

Then prove it. Don't believe what the self proclaimed experts here say; they are playing Sim City. Their arguments rely on back of the napkin calculations and a suburbanites misunderstanding of the people

How would the Red Line go to Foxboro from Ashmont or NQ? It is more west than south. And don't say via the Mattapan/Ashmont because it is well established that that can't be done

Cosmetically Shawmut Station has barely changed in 100 years. It's close to perfect for where it is

Try Joe Green and the 'BZ copter Edit: Seriously 1030 AM traffic and weather on the 3's

I like it. It's weird like 99 High Street meets Planet of the Apes and it's not walling off Bay Village

They look like something out of the Warriors

Drove down 291 today. New Orange Line trains all tagged with graffiti

Thank you for agreeing. My point is that 175 Federal is just as significant as United Shoe. The two buildings represent two different boom times. They are interesting. They are part of how we got to where we are today instead of complete municipal collapse which was more than possible when both...

Would you rip down the United Shoe Building and build a thousand foota?

This has nothing to do with inequity and you know it. They just want people to do what they want them to and the ends justifies the means to the point where any critical examination at all is unthinkable. But I will do the unthinkable and point out that this didn't go before the voters for a...
