Re: New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center A couple of the renters in the Exeter have said they are against the residential building. Presumably, because their views would be (adversely) affected. One of them, a real estate agent, has lived in the building for over 20 years. If we wait...

Re: New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center Proposed Pru projects divide advisory panel By Thomas Grillo

I don't understand the article, either. This is the first I've heard of it potentially being torn down. I don't see the idea of an office building (or, "tower", as Tom Grillo puts it) being approved in any way shape or form. I was hoping for a hotel. Even with the added street traffic, it...

Re: Copley Place plan calls for condo tower I can go on record as saying the wind is sometimes almost strong enough to blow a person over. I had a very unfortunate incident with a huge piece of wood that slammed into the back of me. Everyone around me thought it was hilarious. Glad I could...

Nespresso is opening a "boutique" coffee shop on Newbury Street. There is an ad on craigslist for retail help. If you're not familiar with the company or product, check out their website. I had never heard of their machines, but apparently they are very popular in Europe. And, the cafes look...

Re: Filene's Oh, wait, why didn't anyone come up with this headline: "One Franklin on hold; developer looks for more Benjamins" Scotty Van Voorhis, how we miss you!

The following is about the "Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative". AIR TRAVEL ALL PERSONS traveling by air outside of the United States are required to present a passport or other valid travel document to enter or re-enter the United States. LAND AND SEA TRAVEL The following summarizes...
