    Biking in Boston

    I live down the street--the space is there, but if I had to guess it looks like they're waiting for the Hilton to wrap up construction before finishing the path network up.

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    Still pinching myself that this is all actually happening and coming together. Great photo, @Ruairi!

    EXP | 795 Columbus Avenue | Northeastern University

    Though it has the benefit of introducing contrast, this is probably a branding exercise more than anything, given Northeastern's traditional color palette.

    MBTA Construction Projects

    Great photos, @HelloBostonHi! It's hard to overstate how different Park Street feels. It's worlds brighter, and it feels more open, even with all the construction equipment around. A remarkable change.

    Fenway Infill and Small Developments

    I was struggling to find a render (or any documentation) of the replacement -- thank you! I doubt they did, but it would be nice if they salvaged materials from the old structure.

    Live Long and Prosper Memorial

    I haven't seen these in a while, thanks for sharing. I agree that a statue of the man himself would be better than the Vulcan salute.

    Real Masonry Arches (bridges, mostly)

    Franklin Park has the Ellicott Arch, which carries Circuit Drive over the footpaths below. It's also close by to the Overlook and Schoolmaster Hill ruins, which are rad.

    Mission Hill Infill and Small Developments

    I lived at the corner of Terrace and Allegheny a few years ago... it's a tight fit at the best of times. This is a two-way street with on-street parking: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.3302253,-71.0970223,3a,75y,33.01h,81.03t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sQvJnTNNxabH1_S2XhXUccg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192 I...

    🔹 What's Happening With Project X?

    I did a reverse image search and found a few other renderings on this site: https://d-r-t.co/ This looks like Harrison Street in Chinatown! https://www.google.com/maps/@42.3523132,-71.061311,3a,90y,211.44h,119t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sywNuJokLv7sBAxMo6i8RKA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192

    🔷 Open Thread

    It's preparation for the second phase of the Muddy River Restoration Project. Dredging and shoreline restoration from the Fens through Olmsted Park... so prepare for much more (temporary) fencing over the next couple of years.

    Simmons University Living and Learning Center | 300 Fenway | Longwood

    I am reminded of the Lightview/Northeastern Dorm on Columbus.

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    Sorry for the digression from One Congress, but the Northeastern University meme group has been having a field day comparing the PS5 to EXP:

    The Alcott (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End

    @kz1000ps, I missed your photographs so much! While I wish you were here under better circumstances, having your work to look at has been a silver lining to this whole affair.

    95 Saint (nee Longwood II) | 95 St. Alphonsus St. | Mission Hill

    Fitzgerald Park! It's an old Puddingstone quarry. I try and get up there a few times a year for the sunset. Thanks for the photos!
