    Porter Square Infill and Small Developments

    This is definitely the ideal solution. Now if only we could get electrification throughout the system (or on major lines at least) to make it possible for our commuter trains to use more tunnels.

    Regional Rail (RUR) & North-South Rail Link (NSRL)

    Re: North-South Rail Link There was a presentation over at the BSA Space this past Thursday. Gov. Dukakis, Andy Monat from TransitMatters and Brad Bellows RA were presenting about the tunnel as part of a new committee at the BSA called Infra/Tecture. It really was quite informative in what the...

    Dorm Tower @ Emerson College | 1-3 Boylston Place | Downtown

    Is this genuine shock? the nightclubs have been the biggest conversation point about this project thus far.

    The archBoston Meetup Thread

    Barking Crab is another good option right in that area. Another option is we could also push the meetup one day and do it at the Boston Calling at Dewey Square.

    128 Widening

    Southbound traffic has been moved over to the newly constructed lane(s) just south of the Newton Highland exit. Was stuck in miserable traffic Thursday night there on the old road, and went through a few hours ago and all traffic had been shifted. Does anybody know if they are planning one of...

    General Infrastructure

    So I was looking around for the Electronic Tolling thread (checked within the 128 thread too) because I was curious about something I saw at the I-90 and the 128 interchange. I didn't realize that part of that project was new ramps connecting the two highways. I saw some formed concrete that...

    Parcel P-12 | 286-290 Tremont St | Chinatown

    Re: Parcel P-12 | Chinatown Too be fair, chinatowns across the country are probably ripe for gentrification due to slow development progress over the years. I know this forum has had plenty of discussion about bostons Chinatown gentrification. The longtime residents are worried about being...

    Parcel P-12 | 286-290 Tremont St | Chinatown

    Re: Parcel P-12 | Chinatown I actually forgot to mention two things. The BPDA owns this land, and they are not looking to sell it like the 115 Winthrop Project. Whatever project goes here it is almost guaranteed to be a ground lease with the BPDA. Also, public subsidies would be included in...

    Parcel P-12 | 286-290 Tremont St | Chinatown

    Re: Parcel P-12 | Chinatown So i have been meaning to write a brief synopsis about the last meeting for this parcel.... - The community has requested that the site be maximized to its tallest height. Roughly it is zoned for about 100'0" below the FAA limit. - The turnout at the meeting was...

    Nashville vs Boston

    I was in Nashville last September, and am actually heading back down next month. While the severe lack of transit is a concerning point (i believe there are only 3 bus lines that operate to/from the core) I agree with Rifle that it is an incredible city. The Civic Design Center shows promise for...

    🔹 What's Happening With Project X?

    I remember a proposal from awhile back about a TOD development either at Quincy center or north Quincy (or both). There was a post about the Quincy center garage coming down because of pending development. Am I crazy in remembering a North Quincy development that would replace the massive...

    The New Retail Thread

    Yesterday I was walking down Washington street and happened to stop and ask a couple construction workers what they were working on at the old fro-zen-up storefront. Guess a place called "Dig Inn" is expanding their Boston footprint. Boston Eater reported it back in 9/2016, but I hadn't seen...

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    Again, part of the big city life. Section 8 housing allows people access to jobs not available elsewhere but still allows them to have manageable commutes, because we all know what a wonder commuting into the city be (via any mode of transport). Your rants are futile, do you even have any stats...

    Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown

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

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium So now we are getting a little far into the weeds on what the government should being doing. Federal law would have almost zero impact because the State could just override said law. Owners should not be asking for the money and states (or...

    This is when Skanska will appear with 121 Seaport, but instead of Reebok's logo, the Amazon smile will appear at the top of the bulding

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    That's kinda what I figured... On a side note, its a great example why we need some form of buffer between bike lanes and traffic lanes because the trucks have completely taken it over. But I will try to save that derailment for the bike thread.
