I fired the first shot over the bow, so I'll just say this: everyone here shares an enthusiasm for the history of this city and the potential of the future through the built environment. Duh. We will never be NYC, Chicago, or Hong Kong, but we will never be Des Moines either. There is no...

This discussion point is becoming a bit tedious in every thread.

Re: Pier 4 Commercial-Condo Building (Former Anthony's site) | Seaport I hate looking at this thread and seeing fucking popover pics posted, quoted, and expounded upon, but whatevs.

To quote Mark Twain - Never let the truth get in the way of a good story - or a shadow battle in Boston.

Hmm... a stone throw from Fenway with a nice view in to home plate. I'm sure the Sox suits will have something to say, followed by the shadow police for the Fens/Victory Garden.

That October 1962 from Mass Ave rooftop is amazing.

Better than a parking lot. :D

Me sad panda.

And by that, I wish you meant the Woolworth/33 Arch garage. Looks promising!

Re: Waterside Place 1B | 505 Congress Street | Seaport There is this on corner of Summer and D street:

All rentals, no? The design does look like it came direct from Shenzhen or Hangzhou. Eek

Re: General Electric HQ | Necco St.| Fort Point Is GE known for being a patron of good or innovative architecture? I mean they're know for tax dodging, but that's another story. :D

Nice pics.. love the last two and the intersecting planes of metal, glass, with City Hall. How long until the first broken ticket gate, or spilled Dunkin Donuts on that nice shiny floor. :D

It is a bit pathetic though, no? Not looking to detail with a nightlife discussion, but the article was more a WTF can't we become a 24 hour city given our population demographics. The benefits of mass transport for late shift or lower wage workers is a valid one. Tall buildings, let alone...
