    Boston Common Overhaul

    Ron, several dog owners have proposed taking over an area on the Common and maintaining it, themselves. Pretty much, it becomes like private property. That's what I object to. The rest of the park is open to "everyone".

    Downtown Crossing/Financial District | Discussion

    Expect to hear from Ms Kressel about this. Private companies and individuals have to help where the city can't provide? Why can't our tax dollars go to keep Downtown Crossing in good shape?

    Boston Common Overhaul

    The people who are letting their dogs run "off-leash" are disobeying (i.e., breaking) the law. It is illegal for a dog to be off-leash anywhere in the city, except in designated dog parks. It is not legal to let a dog run off-leash anywhere on the Common. There was a "trial program" at one...

    I Think We Should Collectively Write An Article!!!

    Kennedy, it seems like a great start. Next would be applying what you wrote to several specific projects. An alternative, but along the same lines, would be to compare an architect's point of view of what "works" with neighbors views of what "works". Maybe my idea is driven solely due to my...

    I Think We Should Collectively Write An Article!!!

    I like the idea of something about colleges and their contributions to the city, and the town/gown fight between NIMBYs who pay property taxes and colleges who pay none but contribute otherwise. And/or, hospitals.

    I Think We Should Collectively Write An Article!!!

    I can get you in the paper; the big, time-consuming thins is deciding on a topic and finding someone to put together a draft. Do you want this to be broad-based or single-topic? Architecture- or development-oriented? The first column "you" write doesn't have to cover everything. I think it...

    The New Retail Thread

    Why can't stores end up staying in business on that block? It's kind of dumpy, but bad only because there are too many empty storefronts. The block's a little dirty - I walked it, yesterday, and had to get a tetanus shot.

    Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown

    Re: Filene's No, Ron, just that he was mumbling. There was a story on Greater Boston tonight. Em Rooney ran a piece about the hole in the ground. Three women passersby were interviewed; two said they didn't shop in DTX any longer since Filene's Basement was gone; the third gets points for...
