    So, I go downstairs to use the new tunnel last night after the game. Fortunately, the concourse and tunnel weren't too crowded. Which was good, since the escalator on the Garden side wasn't working. As for the end of the tunnel at the turnstiles - well, that was a total cluster. Made all the...

    I'll be at the Bruins game tonight. I figure I'll be at NS around 6:00 pm. Let's see how this goes.

    The big thing? Southwest started flying from Logan with competitive pricing to what they offered from MHT.

    The Hub on Causeway (née TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End

    Here's what Bruins season ticket holders were emailed this morning: https://www.tdgarden.com/news/detail/legendary/ Couldn't find anything on Boston Planning & Redevelopment's website about these latest changes.

    The Hub on Causeway (née TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End

    It's like everyone here forgot how lousy the old tunnel from the Garden side headhouse to the fare gates was. The peristent leaks, the stacks of newspapers that were left to become soggy messes. The industrial fans outside the T booth that always got in the way of crowds trying to get around...

    Without going way off the track here, I get exactly what F-Line is saying. That article had a very heavy bent on the whole "Millennials leading the way, everyone else is taking a back seat" angle. Reading his comments, he has nothing but praise for TM and everyone involved. His critique was...

    Logan Airport Capital Projects

    That temporary setup utilizing the central garage is going to be an absolute nightmare. I give them credit for coming up with the idea - in theory it's a novel solution. But in reality, given the capacity issues of the garage to begin with and the fact that JetBlue is the major carrier at Logan...

    New England Revolution Stadium | 173 Alford Street | Boston-Everett

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Because that would accomplish nothing. After years of making compromises just to locate teams in stadia of their own by building them in suburbs/non-centralized city locations (Chicago/Bridgeview, Colorado/DSG Park, Columbus/Fairgrounds...

    The Hub on Causeway (née TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End

    The tunnel used to be the major pinch point before the fare gates. But if you remember the old head house, it had two escalators, an elevator and a double wide set of stairs to get you down to the tunnel. And it would overcrowd. Now, you're moving the same amount of people to a much smaller...

    The Hub on Causeway (née TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End

    Is anyone else wondering how woefully undersized that MBTA access vestibule is? One set of stairs, one escalator and one elevator to process a crowd before and after an event (plus normal rush hour commuters)? Yes, people are used to exiting the garden and crossing over Causeway Street, but if...

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Everything Data said here and more. I love tailgating at Gillette (especially in warm weather), but if I have to give it up in order to have a downtown stadium with T access, count me in. I LOVE the fact that tailgating at a soccer match is a...

    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    Having flown to Mexico City a couple of years ago, the 4:25am arrival time into Mexico City was a big factor why I didn't book (via SkyMiles) with AeroMexico and flew Delta via JFK instead. I've got to think that late night/early AM arrival is far from ideal for people considering a nonstop...

    New England Revolution Stadium | 173 Alford Street | Boston-Everett

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Should a Revs stadium get built, there's no way it sits idle without concerts or other sporting events. There's sure to be international friendlies played there, especially given the ease of flying in from Europe into Logan. Plus with 20-25k...
