Wow. Baker knows that if he cancels this he's going to lose reelection right?

Probably a lot of seaport residents mixed in with the No Boston Olympics people. Just look at the title of their site "Boston deserves better" it's pretty much the same thing NBO said.

Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett This was my reaction exactly. Suffolk has a pretty large proportion of the new construction in the city.

Re: The Boston Garden (TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End It's not that I hate the current proposal, it's just that I think it would be more suitable as infill downtown or in the back bay somewhere, not as what should be the most prominent building on the northern approach to the...

Re: The Boston Garden (TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End The podium is wonderful it's by far the best part of this project. Just because the podium is good doesn't mean we're not entitled to ask for something of actual quality for the part that's going to be seen from many...

Re: The Boston Garden (TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End I still wish it were about 200 feet taller like the old proposal.

Re: General Electric HQ | TBD | Innovation District So 253 Summer Street would only be for while they build a new HQ elsewhere in the Seaport? It sounds like they're very eager to get out of Connecticut then. To add my personal thoughts on the matter I think it's great that Boston managed to...

The day One Beacon is torn down for something new is the day Boston has officially run out of land.

Re: The Merano (Parcels 1B & 1C) | Bulfinch Triangle | West End That's terrific. We've been waiting way too long for this one to come to fruition.

Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport This looks terrific and needs to be built immediately.

NIMBYs don't even have eyes. Or ears. all they have is a very large mouth.

The outer neighborhoods weren't as large as they are today though and more of the population was concentrated in the core, hence the greater activity.

It's so close to finishing up its almost painful. Great shots everyone!

Re: Congress Street Garage Development | West End It's finally starting! This is exciting news!

According to how my computer is translating it, it looks to be a daily service. Of course take this with a grain of salt until we get an English source.

Re: Emerson's Continued Destruction of Downtown Boston What, if anything, can be done to fight Emerson on this? I imagine that this would have to go through the BRA so maybe this will get stopped at that point?

Well there goes my main problem with this project. Now if they could have a less terrible lobby I would be very pleased with this.

Re: NorthPoint Cambridge (The one that was train yards, the big plan.) Does anybody know where one could find that? Or does anyone have a copy lying around somewhere?

Yeah, when I first started thinking about the idea, I was comparing it in my head to Los Angeles City Hall and thinking of the two buildings as being similar in size. But now that I've looked at it a bit more I've discovered that while the CHT is a bit taller than LA City Hall it's much thinner...

I would just like to point out that Bellingham and Lexington are two completely different kinds of suburbs. Lexington has been an established town with a solid, walkable town center for hundreds of years, while Bellingham was just a couple hundred farmers and a church until after WWII. Lexington...
