I missed where I responded directly to you or DBM.

I meant that saying it is better than it's peers is a contradiction to it being devastated. Thank you very much

I'm confused. How could it be so successful and better than elsewhere if it is devastated?

Not "would" be better, that has not always been the case. It could be better with the right plan

When I talk about giving credit I mean for quantifiable improvements to the city in this generation and the last. For example the MWRA/ Harbor cleanup (an existential threat to all development- we almost ran out of water) and the Big Dig. These things were then paid for by the average person

Right, we can only speculate so maybe something expensive fell a few floors and they put up plexiglass. I have seen things like that happen

Is it suicidal people or an OSHA thing?

I grew up here and bought real estate when it was cheaper than now which sounds great. However I have a few problems, first my kid can't afford a house and I can't just sell mine to give him the hefty down payment needed to compete with people who will pay half a million dollars for one floor in...

We probably should have dropped the .org when we got ads

I was reading the above and noticed the point about the price of a single family home in Brookline. It's true but what is the solution in that specific place? Are we to lose the shoe for the want of a nail? Are we suggesting tearing down Brookline and other unique suburbs and building denser...

That was disappointing. No new development project in the North End?

The bus that takes 16 min or walk takes 19. This is not moving the theater to Nebraska. Being next to the Pike is good for the theater and people who don't live near the T, are elderly or disabled. Yes it makes it a little tougher for people who currently have good T access but it may actually...

It's also a fact that right now, Saturday morning at almost 10 oclock, it is 24 minutes from Neponset Car Wash to this theater nd 20 minutes from Stoneham. MA via GPS. Perhaps more people will have easier access to this theater than the old one because you can still get to it by the T

It is like the Zakim Bridge in that it is not particularly original but it is the right structure for that specific place

A 5 over 1 facing a street has an elevator and is relatively easy to extricate a patient. This is not the same as that. Boston is one of the most difficult cities for EMS and zoning should not make it worse

It is interesting that this is a possibility given how scarce hotel rooms have been historically.

The argument that the old residents are somehow a problem is what is being attacked

It mostly has to do with standardization for emergency services. The street pattern is chaotic as is, it can't be made worse

Not laborers, the average Bostonian. It is the people and culture that define Boston and set it apart and it's the taxpayer that helped finance the infrastructure you see that made the city so desirable. I say to my wife, you came here because it was desirable to you and good for your life, you...
