Hope for faster boarding processes and other ways increase the number of flights per day on a per gate basis. Also in a dreamworld, we should hope that if the airlines want to expand boston service this much, they will help finance the bigger terminal E expansion. I'm not holding my breath on...

More 737 max info from public sources - http://aviationweek.com/awincommercial/air-canada-might-fly-737max-europe-south-america (paywall) http://www.businessinsider.com/norwegian-air-boeing-737-max-sell-69-dollar-tickets-europe-2016-9 both NAS and air canada will be using it to fly back...

totally cannot say due to the strictest NDA you can ever imagine (former boeing experience). ' Let me say this, the range of the 737 max is substantially longer than the 737. With the range extensions, flights from the northeast us can reach the extreme west of europe safely on one tank of...

TBH it depends. There are a few things that have to happen for it to happen. First the cost of fuel. Second is takeoff/landing fees at us airport (this is why they are targeting bradley). Third is taxes and other fees. This could be the real killer of $69 transatlantic flights. Also Norewigan...

That's happening? Is there any more info about this? Are there going to be protected intersections, bike signals, real barriers?

yesterday I was in Logan for way too long and I was watching the runway for a couple of hours. From about 1-330, there was a wait of at least 7ish planes (think max was about 12) wait to take off the entire time. The planes were taking off on the minimum time interval and I' assuming that the...

Having lurked for years and have sparsely posted for the past year, the quality has gone down. Every discussion is the same. The building isn't tall enough! WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF ROOM! The constant derailers have been told so many times to actually offer something besides their normal...

Not to be that guy, but are we ever going to ban the extreme detractors who cannot follow forum posts/etiquette after multiple warnings?

Re: Hotel Tower | 560 Commonwealth Ave | Kenmore Square God damnit. How did I miss that? Also hopefully something will go on the other sides of the building. Hopefully...

Re: Hotel Tower | 560 Commonwealth Ave | Kenmore Square Height doesnt really matter here compared to other spots. The important part is that we are getting rid of a bank and putting in real ground level retail. Also it is good that we are getting another hotel, we need as many as we can get

Enough about MIT. A top University in the world that has more money than god and a need for world class labs is not comparable to a public high school. We all know you went to MIT - congrats on getting in 70 years ago. To Arlington's question, the Waltham HS may be built on a new site. The...

Worcester built a new high school for $70ish million back in 2011. Inflation has been nearly 1% a year since 2011 so that's a nonissue. Does an additional 600 students, a hill, and building it in Waltham or Somerville really add $200 million to the price of it? I'm all for nice high schools but...

So tiptoeing around NDAs, the typical cost per sq ft for a manufacturing factory is about $900 including tooling (my area of expertise is manufacturing really big things). This number includes tooling and other factory support items. Renovations cost about $200 per sq ft. Using these numbers, a...

public comment map: http://wikimapping.com/wikimap/melneacass.html Fantastic news: they added protected intersections and bike signals to this project bad news: the bike lanes are one direction worst news: BRT or bus lanes still aren't part of this project.

I'm a strategy consultant and I have done some engagements where we include the price of new buildings (typically for expansion/outsourcing). So I took the sqft and multiplied it by an average price per square foot for an urban area with a high COL based on my experience. Nothing too earth...

The cost of this is insane. $256 million for a high school seems totally out of line. Now I think there is a huge need for a new high school and I realize any high school would cost $100 million, but $256 million just seems wild.

Why is the price so much higher than the $566 bid? Am I missing something or did the cost just skyrocket?

Lol I know that designers and developers drive the boxes to maximize returns. I was trying to say that it is good to finally see a curve on seaport Blvd. I think we can all agree that it is a good change of pace to see some sort of curve.

who is else amazed that an architect found a tool other than a T ruler? While I knew this was happening for months, it is amazing to actually see a curve!

Thanks! I HATE those gas stations. There has got to be a better place for them than on Broadway. Talk about a way to make a fun area boring. A great comparison is the Shell station in capital hill seattle. People say that the neighborhood ends at the start of the shell station (the one 2ish...
