Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett While density next to highways is not as good as density next to transit it's still better than low density. Density makes a city work.

Is it supposed to be a mixed-use path or is it supposed to be a pedestrian path?

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District THIS. DZ you seem to be viewing everything through the context of greater height = greater importance (or success, or viability or something). I don't think OKC is a good comparison to Boston. London, Dublin, Paris, Munich, Montreal, Washington DC...

Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett Land is more expensive in northeast markets that support high rise construction. So: 1)it's tough to find a parcel big enough to support three long double stacked wings that's also ripe for a hotel (hotel because people don't want to walk down long hallways to...

An homage to Methunion Manor?

They mobilized to the site in Feb, 2016. 19 months later and they still aren't out of the ground. Their civil budget must be blown to high hell.

Re: One Seaport Square | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport People began moving into at least on of these buildings this week.

They shouldn't be able to do that. I report crews whenever I see them blocking traffic without a detail. Just call 911 and when they say "what's your emergency?" state "This is a non-emergency call." They'll switch you over to dispatch where you can explain where the missing detail is.

I'm not so sure you know what Proletariat means.....

Wouldn't a new lot on Pappas' property be in violation of the South Boston Parking Freeze?

I can't get over how little progress has been made since the demo. They're civil budget must be completely blown.

That seawall at the corner of Summer Street needs to be shored up. IIRC, they'll be driving sheets in front of the wall and backfilling with concrete.

Older people on fixed incomes.
