Exactly, we're talking about the claims that were being made 15 years ago. It's a different story now. But they were very loud, and very effective. As for worst place the Green Line goes, gotta be Boylston given the St. Francis House, amirite?

Re: Amtrak / Regional Rail Discussion Thread I mean...obviously something is off there. Nobody would suggest BRT over such a distance. Some kind of frequent bus service, yes, but not what we know as bus rapid transit.

Re: Dock Square Parking Garage | 20 Clinton Street | That is...embarrassing. And quite a commentary on Boston's reputation. "Just make it shorter! That'll get 'em!"

The MBTA certainly doesn't like the E-line in that it's right in the middle of the road, but it was also an issue on Centre St with losing all the on-street parking. There was a lot of opposition on those grounds.

That's the party line, which I'm happy to parrot for now, although my confidence isn't exactly being supported. Interesting way to phrase cars not coming online until later. It's like saying I won't get my paycheck next week, but I will get "more money than expected" in a month when I finally...

Deployment of the first new Orange Line cars is now delayed until the summer. The reason is again the software issues previously cited.

...I don’t think I’ve mentioned glass a single time. Can you quote me please? The great thing about stupid, self-serving predictions like yours (that this will “fuck over transit”) is that we’ll get to see you proven wrong in real time.

"Parkway," otherwise known as completely unused space like in Charles River Park. The Greenway is a park, this is pointless suburban "greenery" that isn't needed. And as we already discussed above, your primary interest in this is not having your precious commute inconvenienced, no matter the...

LOL, have at it. I'm sure your concern trolling, bad faith arguments, and lack of punctuation will bring this project to its knees.

Your concern is duly noted.

FYI, there is a meeting on GLX tonight in East Cambridge. Wed Mar 20, 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. Kennedy-Longfellow School Cafeteria 158 Spring Street, Cambridge, MA 02141 https://www.mass.gov/event/glx-open-house-public-meeting-2019-03-20t183000-0400-2019-03-20t200000-0400 Some topics to be covered...

Of course more development will happen in a recovery/expansion/boom. The question is not if more development is happening, but the delta between how much is happening as opposed to how much would naturally happen without the red tape. Now, as stick says, a lot of the regulation is in place for...

I have yet to see a single good argument against this project. Carry on.

LOL!

Has the mayor told DPW to sit on their asses during storms?

How did I know that this would be just about the run of this thread right now?

Could we not have this thread devolve into an argument about Walmart?

The website is definitely confusing when it comes to monthly passes.

It's not a first grade sense of fairness when fares have risen several times while the gas tax has gone up once in the last couple decades. And as a rider, I am not only paying "$90" per month. I pay the sales tax, and I pay state income taxes, so my contribution to the system is far higher than...

... are you feeling alright?
