Re: A st Highrise There are plenty of parking lots, but this building is garbage. Time to tear it down and build something new!

Re: Filene's There is plenty of empty retail space in DTX already. Don't get me wrong, I would rather see something built than the hole. My question, what tenants are going to be attracted to a space knowing they could potentially be booted out of so tower construction can begin? This is the...

And it is only getting bigger!

Re: Fenway HoJo "The letter proposed constructing two interconnected 12-story buildings - a 175,000-square-foot residential component and a 170,000-square-foot hotel component - more than 4,000 square feet of retail space and 280 underground parking spaces."

^^Yes (at least from what I understand)

Trans National Place! Suck it!

There's truth to that! Maybe the residents of some run down building will lay claim to the development and get some free housing out of it without even thinking of getting a job.

Re: New tower at Christian Science Church Plaza I own it. I plan on putting a 700ft residential tower there. Who's going to stop me?

Re: Columbus Center For his next targeted assault on growth in the city? Great ULI panel last night discussing city waterfronts. A planner from Vancouver discussed the importance of strategic density in a CITY. That's right a CITY. Last I heard Boston was a CITY and you had to head out of...

Re: Liberty Wharf (Jimmy's Harborside) Lots of glass! Like that on the water. Will be a better Seaport destination than Louis. My argument regarding the Fish Pier smell in the summer still stands. Hopefully there will be a good quick evening option for before Pavilion shows.

Re: The Boston Arch (Aquarium parking garage) I'm all for ripping on the BRA, but I got a kick out of this film as I anticipate many of you will too: http://pcj.typepad.com/planning_commissioners_jo/2010/01/wonderful-city.html

That Daily Catch sucks. I went in their one time, waited 20 minutes for no one to even take our drink order...walked out. They weren't even busy, one party of four in the place, and plenty of staff doing nothing. I will never return, and stick to the Barking Crab. I would rather see McDonald's...

Re: Fenway Center (One Kenmore, Mass Turnpike PARCEL 7) So...I can't tell...are you for or against the project?

I can understand your perspective, even though it took me 3 or 4 reads to decipher.

Re: The Boston Arch (Aquarium parking garage) Also have to agree. This display of character by the BRA does nothing to make them a respected member of the development community. It is sad once again that the project Menino backed (Filenes) that failed miserably has to be used as leverage to...

Re: Fenway Center (One Kenmore, Mass Turnpike PARCEL 7) "Flaherty also takes issue with the developer, John Rosenthal, not calling the Mass Pike space beneath his proposed project a tunnel, which Flaherty maintains is because Rosenthal does not want the project to be subject to regulations for...

Re: Gardner Museum to undertake $60 million expansion Do they have any better renderings or a campaign film like the MFA had for their expansion?

Re: The Boston Arch (Aquarium parking garage) Hate to get in on this one, but have you been following the Atlanta Beltline project at all? It is their version of the Big Dig, only this one will actually spur development because the point attempting to be made was that the BRA sucks. This...
