    Rose Kennedy Greenway

    I have also thought about an intercollegiate museum which makes the most sense to be housed in a municipal/state museum. I'd also love to see the Westend Museum be part of a larger permanent collection.

    Lyrik Back Bay | 1001 Boylston Street (Parcel 12) | Back Bay

    I feel like a designer on this board could make a great flow chart/decision tree out of this. Slap it on some tee shirts or a tote bag, boom merch. i'd buy one.

    Cambridge Crossing (NorthPoint) | East Cambridge/Charlestown | Cambridge/Boston

    This has to be for finished photography, maintaining this is going to be near impossible.

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

    If they are smart they will locate the stadium inland and develop the waterfront with hotels, housing, and shops.

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    That and they need set backs. This is just bad, massive, instantly dated, doesn't fit the site at all.

    585 Kendall | 585 Third Street | Kendall Square

    I feel like the same general economics of supply and demand which underpin housing gentrification apply here and that the root of the problem is is a lack of supply of new luxury project that is causing commercial gentrification of these class B spaces. I suspect that this is made worse by the...

    585 Kendall | 585 Third Street | Kendall Square

    I know I am like a day late, hundreds of millions of dollars short, and mostly delusional but I like the current design, its just like 700' short. My PowerPoint dream:

    EXP | 795 Columbus Avenue | Northeastern University

    The short answer is a lot. This has what it would guess to be a lot of additional scope cross a few trades which adds complexity and cost in addition to just material costs, not to mention coordination on the design team and contractor (I wonder what the shop drawings are like?). I'd WAG at...

    The Bon | 1260 Boylston Street | Fenway

    ^ I second that. Though I feel like they could have simplified a little bit, they are doing some really interesting things here that appears well thought out.

    Alewife Park | 36-64 Whittemore Ave. | Cambridge

    I would contest that. Low slung isn't the issue, its the management of the design team. Many, most, developers, are not designers/urbanists. They approach development from the perspective of creating an investment product. They undervalue that they are also creating a physical product that is...

    Alewife Park | 36-64 Whittemore Ave. | Cambridge

    Its unfortunate that labs are like the worst building typology for good urbanism but this is a whole new level, these are low-rise monoculture beasts! They feel like sterile federal government buildings in DC. Way too long, the elevations are a thing of nightmares. No where near enough façade...

    Bay Village Apartment Tower | 212 Stuart St. | Bay Village

    A photo from a little walk this weekend. I suspect once the façade weathers a bit this will become a nice background building.

    Stanhope Hotel | 39 Stanhope Street | Back Bay

    Yeah I like the front, It appears to have texture which is a welcome change. The sides and back are the scary parts.

    Nubian Sq. Parcel P-3 (nee Tremont Crossing) | Roxbury

    HYM's is significantly better in terms of plan, at least to me. I want a full service grocery store, Market Basket could crush in this location.
