This thing looks like it was designed by people who know all the trends and tricks but not how to employ them. It's kind of a mess IMO. I think the massing is appropriate but that might be the easiest part.

It is disappointing that the active route map display was left on the table; it would be a boon to tourists and other visitors (and the rest of us for the 95% of the time when the voice announcements are a garbled mess instead of useful). Is there some hidden difficulty to its implementation...

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of a PIN?

I know next to nothing about this, but it doesn't seem like even the market is long for that site; could they just not be sitting on it until a bigger fish comes along and buys everything from the corner to Kilmarnock?

There is an argument to be made for it, and several countries practice exactly this. In the same way that if your income rises it would take proportionately more money to stop and pick it up on the sidewalk (I think I saw something about how picking up a quarter for you is like Bill Gates...

Solid ref, Justin.

Love to get a swanky apartment on the -14th floor, which opens right onto the NSRL platform.

Funnily enough, Brook House is not incredibly dissimilar from this proposal.

Punched windows without any articulation add weight with none of the gravitas. All the misalignment and Bolling Building curves can't save it from looking like the old Malden City Hall.

I want to like it, but it feels disjointed. I like the super thin, slender columns/barely-there canopy Apple store thing. I like the stair and elevator headhouses a la South Station. I do not like that the approach is both rather than either. I'd have preferred to see either a superminimal...

Why do I spend all my time working when I could be making up vaporware to snag some easy bucks from greater fools?

Coyote was right, let's not do this.

Sorry, but I am not seeing the logic between the leaps you're making. It has already been laid out that urban centers are not welcoming environments for autonomy. This has little bearing on the attitudes of their inhabitants. Density + pods = bad. Also, respectfully, I reject your analysis of...

Not that this pulls us back to the topic at hand, but I find the idea that autonomous cars will happen first within cities as opposed to the lowest hanging fruit of the interstates somewhat upside down. Consider me firmly among the skeptics of this entire technology. On the front end, it is...

I can see that perspective: dark veneer masonry, punched openings, potentially foreboding courtyard condition. I'm not saying I agree, but I get it.

I'm into it. If we're going to be the city with all the wonky wedge parcels, we should also be the city of flatirons. This is weird and has some issues to work out but I'm all for it.

I think they're being responsible to work out the kinks now instead of pushing out trains in rough beta. Think about how many infrastructure projects we're sitting on because public confidence is still low from high-profile failures. If they put these trains on and stuff starts breaking it'll be...

It's a shame there isn't a way to get over the tracks from the Gateway Center, which has more spots than the Wellington surface lot, and if the crowds for casino and shopping switch over at around 9-10pm they'd basically not interfere with each other.

That might be the worst-written thing I've ever seen linked here, do they have kids from the Parlin covering the development beat?

Let's try to extend some charity to our fellow posters who are commenting in good faith. You don't really know who's on the other side of the screen, and I bet it's more diverse in many ways than you might think. As I saw Statler explain elsewhere, consider that there's a broad spectrum of...
