Rush hour today on the Monsignor’s folly. Nobody cares to use this road. It’s as wide as sin. Used to be a trolley reservation if you can believe it or not. It’s time for it to go.

I suppose people have trouble letting it go because it's so obviously just a few obstinate/cruel people in the way. So while it may be true that it's bad to fight for it now, it's just so exceedingly stupid and obvious to someone with a normal perspective on things that it just seems genuinely...

I could see a future where the sec has a "come to jesus" moment and suddenly asks for a lane reduction. The right person get's Healey's ear, the right person leaves mass dot... never say never I guess.

For what it’s worth I also contacted the professor who I assume is in charge of it and she did not get back to me. Looking at this makes me wonder if we could really pull off NSRL. If we fixed the cost issue and brought project management in house. Cause look at this platform — walk down...

Is there a limit to escalator speed? I know it sounds like I’m about to propose something crazy so I’ll leave it at that.

Sure, it's just funny to me. One is a bridge that he can use to take vacations that they're gonna get either way. The other one is a long-awaited megaproject that may never happen.

Some nice extra-wide benches would go a long way here. I was looking for somewhere to sit while I was there and found nothing. It also seems like the concrete finishes shown in the render are substantially worse than what's there, but hey, its concrete.

> Cape bridge replacements should take priority Talk about a windshield perspective! But more seriously, it reads like a person who doesn't really understand the situation, and doesn't want to research it in depth. Just sort of skimming over talking points people already familiar with the...

I wish I knew! And good call on the Google store just found it

Have the pleasure of visiting this building today. It’s substantially complete and undergoing tenant fit outs. Note the the first floor tenant is not Google it’s a clothing store. Took a photo of the brickwork cause I wanted to show that it’s pretty decent. The only weird thing is that the...

Was pleasantly surprised a couple weeks ago to see that some shade was already being provided by the baby trees

CX is too small to compare to either. Nobody knows someone who lives there so you can’t stereotype it. We all know what kind of guy hangs out in the seaport. What would a CX Head look like? Maybe if there was more mixed income housing

I think in this case if you are going to the train station regularly you're looking at owning an e-bike. Instead of 3 cars (mom, dad, kid) a family might own 2 cars (mom, kid) and dad bikes to the train station and borrows car as necessary. Since a bike is cheaper than a car this works out...

So I have a regional rail question. It seems like these new trips are very useful in the metro for making weird connections within the area for commutes. North to south etc. but it seems like getting from X suburb to Y suburb still requires the dreaded “all the way in and all the way out” trip...

I believe these do actually spring up if a car passes over them but this person I think ran a tire over the center and broke it in such a way that it’s destroyed

They threw in flex posts over the weekend around the PBLs surrounding my favorite park. A friendly driver has already given us their opinion

So this will be a big station, but this looks markedly not like the palatial underground stations like Penn. I assume the idea is that trains will truly not be terminating at NS/SS under and will always run through? As far as that goes I'm glad they are more forward thinking than NYC in this aspect.

That is a really peculiar development. Even if I step into the shoes of a nimby I can’t think of why I’d prefer it that way. It’s like a suburban hotel setback…

It would be near aquarium. The baker admin study should have some info on the subject I think

Okay I called the congressman's office and they told me the "full report" will not be published until the Fall.
