This one popped into my FB feed somehow...and oh man is it in full Uncanny Valley territory. Just unsettling.

This is one of those ideas that almost everyone except the IOC would be on board with. There's political and financial power in the process of awarding the games - just today there's reports that as part of the SLC 2034 award the IOC was demanding the FBI step back from investigations into the...

Would have been nice to obliterate Kosciuszko Circle like they did there. Still would be nice. The amount of new venues that would have been required in the area for a summer games would have been prohibitive, and I don't think many of the venues would have been useful past the games...

The ultimate goal is to have the women's sports on par with the men's leagues in both attendance and media coverage, so it's in their best interests to have good press facilities to drive that. I think that's also where the lack of other amenities at Walter Brown start to play in - it doesn't...

That's going to take out the HomeGoods and Staples in that plaza. That Staples can be convenient but both chains have other outlets just a few miles further west on 9.

The team averaged ~3,750 per game during the regular season, and a little over 4,500 for the playoffs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023%E2%80%9324_PWHL_season#Attendance). More than respectable for a new league! So you'd be looking at something like a 5-6,000 seat place as a sustainable venue...

My gut feeling is some random local thought they were doing a favor by "cleaning up" the bridge, without realizing that so many people cared about it. Like the story of the 81 year old who attempted a "repair" of a fresco of Jesus without recognizing the damage she was doing. Whoever did do it...

Is that cobblestone-ish thing meant to be a walkable path?

Land Blvd. that becomes Memorial Drive.

In general, but the 4th gen Trans-Ams look overstyled compared to the simpler Camaros to me. I'm also biased in that one of my favorite all-time race cars (and this is a Ford guy speaking) is the Jack Baldwin Hot Wheels Camaro.

The F-body Camaros have aged way better than the Firebirds, IMO.

That was a big hit that happened right in front of me. Typical LMP2 missed braking point taking out a GT car:

Watkins Glen - IMSA 6 Hours of the Glen

Seems like a façadectomy candidate to me.

BeeLine, thank you for your continued work in documenting this stuff. I don't get back to Southie nearly as often as I'd like, so it's nice to be able to keep up on the changes. It's amazing how much the project at H and E Broadway is changing the view there. A major hole filled.

The Celtics have an impressive history website that includes some old videos of both the Garden and North Station. https://bostoncelticshistory.com/item/watch-inside-the-old-garden/?postId=1231 https://bostoncelticshistory.com/item/watch-take-a-ride-to-the-garden/?postId=1231

The arena sections look interesting. Almost like a miniature version of the old Garden with the balconies along the sides. Also reminiscent of other college rinks like Vermont's, or Canadian Major Junior rinks like Peterborough's, where the majority of the seats are in the large end sections...

The direction they're walking would lead them to the Franciscans' St. Anthony's Shrine on Arch St.
