Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett As long as people don't check out the neighborhood on Google Earth before they book the vacation, we're all set. After all, the name already has them fooled into thinking that the Mystic river casino is actually in Boston harbor. Imagine the look of horror as...

Great idea!...and if MBTA can benefit, all the better.

Re: South Station Tower The excess SST parking is to help alleviate the lack of GE headquarters parking....but it will be a chilly walk across the channel in winter to get to work for them. Shocking what they are doing to those (poor) corporate execs! One space for every 27 employees!

Re: 111 Federal St. | Formerly Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 Agreed, and well said.....I do not believe the renders do the building justice (for some reason), but it is clear that the extensive details will be something unique. If the "crown" does get illumination, it hopefully...

:confused: ^Agreed......100%.....the city says ok to height for Harbor Garage project, the city says ok to height for Hub on Causeway project, the city leads us to believe height is ok with 1 Bromfield.....then what happens? They allow the inmates to run the asylum, or in other words: they...

Re: Longfellow Place (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End Every time I see the name "West End" that song pops in my head.......West End Girls. :)

Re: Longfellow Place (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End DOA?....as in: Delirious Over Anything ?

OMG...you could probably purchase a nice 3BR/3 Bath home in a large percentage of American cities for that price!....with Longwood Medical area nearby, there are lots of buyers who can afford that....and walk home from work in minutes to enjoy their rooftop cabana. :-)

In relation to the Cambridge market, If you stand back and look at the big picture, I would think that the best argument for going tall would be the lack of enough space in this particular market for the burgeoning biotech market. It seems every bio-related company in the world wants in on the...

Nice rock!....I can just imagine an occasional female guest hearing that phrase upon check-in there........She'll think they mean the one on her hand, but they really meant the one in the driveway. :)

^ We need an Austin Powers/Dr. Evil standup cutout to put at the entrance of MT with him holding a sign reading: one BILLION dollars.... :)

Re: 111 Federal St. | Formerly Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 Exactly.....it is amazing how the anti-development crowd in Boston holds so much sway. Community involvement/engagement is one thing. Nonsensical obstructionism is another-especially when it results in stifled growth...

Re: 111 Federal St. | Formerly Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 BRA "watchdog", Shirley Kressel..... That's an insult to every watchdog in the world. At least watchdogs do something noble. She seems to justify her existence by obstructing progress, and thinks it's worthy. (?) She...

^^While driving or walking along Memorial Drive near MIT at night, and looking at the Boston skyline from there, embarrassing is not the word that comes to mind. Impressive is more like it....and it's getting much better. As a recent former nationwide truck driver, I have seen just about every...

^^Not sure which impresses me most: The tower, or the Dime bank lobby.

^^Looks great....love that building. Love the glass also...not as reflective as JHT/200 Clarendon. Can't wait to see this thing lit up at night when it's fully occupied.

Re: General Electric HQ | Necco St.| Fort Point I nominate number 5 to be brought to Boston, restored to original specs, and displayed on the entrance area. (keep it all original-if possible-for historical reasons)....Then, I would design a new, updated display-representing the future-to be...

Re: 111 Federal St. | Formerly Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 ^^No one ever let poor Rudolph play in any reindeer games, nor like his buildings? Wikipedia shows some of his designs, which are pretty cool.

^^Thank you for that! Can you please also tell them to take 1/2 hour lunch breaks, for even faster progress? :)
