You were likely looking for a room in Portland during one of the overnight camps visiting day weekends when thousands of parents come for the weekend to visit their kids at overnight camps in the area. I have seen rooms that go over $100 normally go for $800 that weekend and those are not even...

I was curious so I checked the cheapest rate for some other luxury hotels for the same dates: Four Seasons (Public Garden) - $912/night Four Seasons (Dalton) - $730/night Ritz - $718/night Mandarin - $795/night XV Beacon - $745/night I know it is the new kid on the block, but the Raffles...

The Church owns the land where the Colonnade Hotel is located?

Is there any link you can share discussing this? Seems insane to me that a business a block up and across the street would need to comply with any of the CSC regulations concerning alcohol. Where does this CSC "radius" end?

Reminds me of: https://ew.com/article/2013/05/17/saturday-night-live-stefon-clubs-everything/

Perhaps because their finances were stronger when they agreed to the signage deal and the cash saved can be put to better use.

Maybe if the numbers work and CarGurus is amenable, Samuels can let CarGurus out of their signage agreement in favor of one with Lego. CarGurus may be interested in saving some cash.

Have you seen the recently completed Mark Development projects on Washington St? I don't believe there is much, if any, retail space that has not been leased yet.

Will this addition include any restaurants that are not a complete and total waste of money? I don't mind expensive food when it's good. I understand the food is not the draw at most casinos around here, but I never understood why they don't have at least one or two "destination" restaurants...

Curious which downtown Boston restaurants that serve meats like ribs, brisket etc. (i.e. generally not cheap items) would you consider to be "affordable?"

I'd really like to think that state officials made the developer post some kind of bond when working on a project like this over a critical interstate. The bond should ideally be enough to put the highway back to the way it was pre-construction should the developer abandon the project...

So if they do nothing for 5 years, the rent due after 8/1/28 is just the market rate at that time? This doesn't look to me like it will start any time soon.

Agree to disagree. It is one of the breeziest spots in the entire city.

Start in September and finish in March-June. And why would it need to be done by spring when it is 45 degrees, raining and no one wants to spend more time outside than nececssary? Unless this takes more than 9 months to complete, the timing makes no sense to me.

Just like the world did in 1994 when the World Cup was in Foxboro? In the worst stadium in all of sports at the time....

Do they really need to start this right in the middle of the summer, the square's most active time of year? It can't wait for fall/winter to start?

Boggles my mind that they are not getting creative with admission and doing things like free/discounted admission if you spend a certain amount ($50? $100?) at the bar or restaurant. Maybe they one day will.

I wonder what $18+ million would get you these days at one of the Four Seasons condos or the Mandarin. And what do they plan to do with the 15th-floor pied-à-terre 13 floors below? Overnight for staff?

This article from September (https://bankerandtradesman.com/one-lincoln-plans-200m-upgrade-for-new-anchor/) had State Street relocating in "early 2023"

The issue (at least for me) is with the initial promise of something special/different than a regular lobby with a restaurant, coffee shop or two. Just come out and say it will be an office lobby with retail and no one would be discussing this now.
