    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District It's actually a late cycle correction. Any project that isn't fully funded and started in the next year may end up being stalled. But not at this current moment. Aka I see it as a warning shot.

    Also. Truth here. Rifle don't you think maybe trump is attacking the fbi because he's either guilty or an idiot with authoritarian tendencies? I know you people know. I've gotten a few of y'all to admit it. Doesn't it worry you that you're supporting a movement that is constantly attacking our...

    I picture him like some free state project libertarian of the coos county nh variety with a heavy Massachusetts accent that's always ranting about the traffic. ... And immigrants. Even though the only border near us is Canada. Granted, the Quebecois can be quite obnoxious.

    New Red and Orange Line Cars

    Only steel cars I would hope. The process of producing aluminum is extremely energy intensive and it wouldn't be very green to not recycle aluminum.

    I really don't understand why they intend to make that brownfield the "open space"

    Nominations: ArchBoston ugliest buildings

    I was looking at pictures taken from the inside of those recently, they're apparently WORSE on the inside. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/waters-edge-tower-revere https://www.yelp.com/biz/ocean-place-tower-apartments-revere The reviews are hilariously bad.

    Nominations: ArchBoston Biggest Urban Planning Disaster

    I'm glad someone has the same opinion on the greenway as me. Walking it feels like exactly that, as if I'm walking along a highway median.

    Encore Boston Harbor Casino | 1 Broadway | Everett

    Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett We once had a national politics thread. It was a dumpster fire. What it told me though most people here agree with each other politically. I only counted one traditional conservative and two trumpsters. Ty wasn't one of those. Anyways all I was saying was I...

    ArchBoston Awards 2017

    We need to make sure that modular thing in Allston gets at least a nomination for worst. Overpriced, awful location, built around a billboard, and moderately ugly. They could have demonstrated that modular can be good, instead they made an overpriced monster.

    Encore Boston Harbor Casino | 1 Broadway | Everett

    Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett I'm more hoping for steve Wynn losing his personal wealth and having to sell off shares of his business so I can enjoy the product being offered without the guilt of my money going to the guy. I do not like the man or the role he's playing in politics but I...

    Re: Parcel Q1 | 10 Drydock Ave. | Seaport Would conversion to light rail allow higher speeds as I suspect?

    Amazon HQ2 RFP

    The government can't offer high enough pay for top notch tech workers... Directly employed. That's why they hire contractors. Bypasses the government pay scale. For anyone who thinks government contracts are for saving money. No. I know lots of people with specialized skills who leave govt and...

    The St Regis Residences (former Whiskey Priest site) | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

    Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport I have not once seen him use the term "gobsmacking" (for some reason it really bothers me in how excessively it is used on curbed Boston) Also I'm glad this hasn't changed too much from when they first proposed...

    Parcel Q1 | 2 Drydock Ave. | Seaport

    Re: Parcel Q1 | 10 Drydock Ave. | Seaport You mean like converting it to light rail maybe? I just don't get the idea of bus not-rapid transit. I mean, it's a big bus mostly segregated from regular traffic. With no other advantages other than that, and it's not even 100% segregated from regular...

    Allston Yards (Stop and Shop) | 60 Everett St | Allston

    This isn't exactly a location where I expected something particularly exciting. If they stick with their original plan for quantity of residential units I'd think this development was a good thing even if the buildings were outright ugly.

    Naw, Boston cream donuts won't hurt nearly as much as unopened beer cans.
