What? If you're talking about Chinese steel we didn't import much from them in the first place. Anyways, I'm sure if anything it's the labor shortages weighing on any projects in the region.

Jesus, it's even orange before cladding it. Who is the weirdo with an obsession with the color Orange on this project???

They can use the cars taken out of service as parts donors to the ones still in service.

And by the name of the new owner, I think it's safe to assume they intend to build more lab space in this location.

Oh wow, somehow I didn't realize there was a mini drawbridge there!

Ok, what exactly is that ugly thing that appears to have ladder access to the top?

Story of my life whenever something metric gets thrown into the mix.

RI has actually been been stealing some business from MA lately, per massecon. I like seeing all of New England doing well, no reason for any hate here.

Re: Alexandra Hotel Renovation | 1769 Washington St | South End Yeah, I was thinking it looks an awful lot like 10 farnsworth.

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District Tariffs do not appear to be a partisan issue anyways. It's more like people who see the negative impact (us) vs people who don't know and don't care. But yeah, terrible time to be driving up construction material prices. At least concrete isn't...

I didn't realize "proto" was a part of this same project.

Probably to leave the option open to redevelop the parking lot.

Snoozefest is better than our usual response at this stage. What I want to know is when the residential portion starts.

I explained exactly why I think those choices are made. I asked why can't the cheap materials be used differently- the pseudo brick thing just cheapens the looks further (in the non-monetary sense). I mean, they could just choose black instead for a color and it would look better. If they...

Absolutely not the same building, but I really can't be outraged without knowing what kind of condition it was in before. At least there's still going to be an actual stone facade- something way too expensive to see in all-new construction these days.

I'm with you on this one. It strikes me as a lazy attempt to make new buildings fit in with all the surrounding brick buildings. The value of those older buildings are the materials theirselves, not the color of them. If you're going to use a cheaper, more modern material then just try to use it...

Re: Longfellow Place (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End It sounds like he's just fantasizing to us while touching himself. Like sexting, only on a message board while talking about tall buildings.

Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport I suppose, but let's say I come from local old money, and wanted to be in the city, I'd opt for a beautifully restored place in the back bay, and hiring service really isn't too difficult.

Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport I'm guessing it's to appeal to "new money". Old money wears their designer labels as a discreet tag on the inside. Conspicuous consumption isn't that classy.

Probably a specific estimated completion date for some kind of repairs?
