I think their goals for the project, owners of the assets or not, are to add value from the fan experience perspective and make money doing so. If you prefer to think about the ‘fan experience’ as ‘public realm enhancements,’ that’s fine, they’re the same thing in this case.

If they stand to make a handsome ROI, of course, why wouldn’t they? Once the buildings are built it doesn’t matter too much who owns them, the fan experience enhancement (richer urban environment) is in place regardless.

Y'all need to go let God love you somewhere else if you can't tell the difference between GCI marketing imagery and 'real life'! :ROFLMAO:

Do the different color glass panels and that one section of the night time lighting that is not lit bother anyone else to death? 💀

It’s looking towards the southeast expressway. What’s so confusing?

I guess this is infill for Assembly, but it is not small! And fuck labs, build resi towers! https://www.bisnow.com/boston/news/mixed-use/greystar-files-plans-for-14m-sf-mixed-use-project-steps-from-assembly-row-122067

Uhh what about good old fashioned valuation by discounted cash flows? Less cash flow = lower valuation. You say lower rents equals lower valuation but that’s only if the space is rented, not vacant. But would be good to hear from someone in the industry on this.

Although I am not an expert, I assume that the sale and subsequent deactivation of these tanks doesn't have a material impact on oil market or pricing dynamics. There is no need for oil tanks to be in the center of a extremely high value metro when that land could have higher and better uses...

In what world would that happen?! Lol

Why does it seem like every mixed use master plan in the Boston area, of which are there quite a few now, are only like 35% housing? I assume what is proposed is an indication of what can and will get financed, but how does this make sense in an environment where we know housing is in much...

Ok thanks, was an interesting read. Is type IV (cross laminated timber) considered significantly preferable as far as integrity goes? Is a dorchester triple decker just type V? Sorry I ‘made fun’ of your papier maché comment but you’ve been saying it over and over again with this unpleasant...

I’ve been doing the LORD’s WORK over on the Globe’s recent post on the gram’s comment section about these NIMBY’s 👊🏻 @aazwood

Can you please cite some sources that explain what is wrong with wood framed construction? I am genuinely interested to learn why you say this is the case. If it is so bad wouldn't it be outlawed in building code? And are all single family houses just boxes of shit because they are made of wood?

Because it isnt PapIEr MaChÉ?

WHERE IS THE FUCKING HOUSING

This was never substantiated and was evidently never the case.

you are a miserable person

What is the project for and how will it affect Lowell Line service?

I love this development overall but I do have a small gripe with the size ratio between the office tower and the smaller hotel. Hotel side is almost awkwardly small, right?
