Thanks!

That was pretty impressive! My girlfriend lived over on Galen Street for two years, but we would use Washington Street to go down to Cabots sometimes and on days where i hated the pike and needed to get to Rt. 16. Overall I love this scheme and would love to see something like this happen. One...

Four letters for you... NSRL! If amazon agrees to come to Boston, The North South Rail Link would most likely have to be part of the discussion. Our existing Transit system could not handle this many more people (at full employment). Amazon is going to want to see Boston being serious about its...

I grew up in Lancaster (2 towns over from Hudson) and the transformation has been incredible. They've been doing a lot of road improvements that make getting to downtown from 495 a ton easier. I remember the Assabet Trail took forever to finish over on the east side of town due to reconstructing...

The better question may be, how do we increase the safety of these buildings throughout the entire life cycle. We have post occupancy down with active systems, but how do we improve the pre occupancy safety?

With have to be careful here. Not only are you talking about unfairly taxing a building material, but you are also talking about taxing the sustainable building material. Wood is becoming more and more common, because yes it is cheaper, but thermally it has better characteristics then your...

Re: Landmark Center Expansion | Fenway Being that I am a graduate of the WIT architecture program (and current student at the BAC), I sincerely hope that Blick slides over into the Best Buy space. This is one of only two supplies stores in the fenway area, and honestly this had a much bigger...

Of course this is all based on the simplest of renders, but.... If this building is executed the way it appears in this image it looks like it belongs in the under-financed BHA developments

Re: South Weymouth I saw this too and I saw the interview with the CEO on the sideline. I ended up going and doing some digging, and really couldn't find much other then their site plan.

I understand this is a graphical rendering, but they could at least make the building look a little more appealing in the render. It looks like a studio project where the student forgot about material until 2 nights before the presentation (speaking from experience of course haha) Steep? Very...

From the looks of the graphic on page 126, the 39 route would terminate at the Copley Green Line entrance and then loop around Copley Square. Essentially its the same route minus the Back Bay stop. Why they wouldn't show it stopping in front of the Copley Fairmont is beyond me. Maybe they are...

For the most part I think this is a great proposal. When i saw the site plan I knew an articulated bus (the 39) would not really be able to do a turnaround there. Then i realized that part of the proposal is to actually terminate the 39 bus over at Copley. Even with the close distance between...

Not wasting anytime at all. Really happy to see the alma mater moving forwards to improve the campus.

I feel the same way. I am actually digging the development overall. The picture that shows (in what appears to be the bell tower) side-by-side windows that have beautiful brick arch ways being covered by framing is very disappointing. I understand this is luxury and all, but that would be so so...

I was at Wentworth when they started the Master Planning process, and this was actually part of the discussion. Whether WIT would acquire the land a integrate the fire department into it or do a landswap, we had no idea, but as students it was a great and fun exercise to be able to participate...

Little bit of both? haha The warning would be for anyone on the Pike to be aware of the traffic change. Praise for getting the ramp online quickly, especially when you compare it to other MA highway projects currently underway

On my drive to Hartford this morning the 128/I-95 interchange was all screwed up. They have moved traffic to the new exit ramp (just west of the existing). Gotta hand it to MassDOT and the contractors, didn't waste anytime with getting that thing up and running

Love the concept! I agree with almost all of the comments to help support this as well. This should and would be tied exclusively to transit, correct? This alone would help the NSRL cause. The biggest question I would have is, How is it enforced? I understand London has a congestion charge and...

At risk of bumping for useless information, I thought this was a pretty cool snip to look at high speed rail.... http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20170605-inside-chinas-incredible-train-network

Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport "Dearth" of parking??? Seriously???? I know the nyumber 7 bus is in shambles, but didn't Rep. Nick Collins recently say something about a study to dramatically improve this route. A development like this should have less parking! Maybe the city gets...
