This is the golden age of apartment renting compared to the 1980's

Part of the reason for the plaza is the Silver Line stop

I am bummed I didn't buy a few buildings for a song and dance back when they were being torched for the insurance money

The lot is currently on a slight elevation and is apparently going to be leveled. I wish that they would build it on that elevation and keep and restore the stone wall and maybe a mature tree or two if possible. It would make for a better streetscape and be a better neighbor.

This 1970s Neo Noir is the Best Boston Movie: The Friends of Eddie Coyle - YouTube I always loved this film

I think 691 Mass Ave is great too. These three well done contemporary projects have helped fix a historic streetwall that was conspiculously gap-toothed. https://bostonsluxuryproperties.com/list-of-boston-luxury-buildings/691-massachusetts-avenue/

In the past sin taxes like those on cigarettes or tolls like on the Mass Pike were said to be for a specific purpose and then at the whim of the legislature they were used for other things. Is there any guarantee under state law that these tolls would be used for the intended purpose. I believe...

Keep in mind that the wealthy and the students are generally the only people rich enough to live in Town. Why don't we tax them? Edit: I am being sarcastic

I think this might be a really good idea. Seeing how well it works in a nearby state is intriguing, but how can we quantify if it is a better way? That would be the first step in convincing people to take this seriously

Not to be a Debby Downer but there is also the possibility of Kenny Rogers chickening all of Chelsea

To enter Boston proper you must cross a bridge over the Neponset, Charles or Mother Brook and they are not all lit up because they are not important enough and the cost isn't justified. If we suggest the Tobin be lit then legitimate questions will be asked about its true cost and purpose.

I don't think it should pass the environmental sniff test. It has no real practical purpose beyond esthetic

Also in the next decade the NE Baptist is rumored to be looking to build a new hospital in Longwood

Well I agree and disagree with that. Yes people should get more involved in general. This is something that comes up from time to time and eventually it comes down to people going to meetings and such instead of just going on and on about NIMBY's here. Personally, I see no great conspiracy that...

You must then engage in the democratic process and change things

Yes, and in the other direction the trail will connect to The Beat, Dorchester Bay City and the Red Line. Someday the trail will complete the Harborwalk connection to the Neponset River Greenway trails south of the city connecting the Blue Hills to DT Boston and beyond

This project might end up being within walking distance to the beach. The Climate Ready Dorchester plan recommends extending Tenean Beach to Victory Road. This would help extend the Harborwalk to the Neponset River and end up being one of the nicest beaches in the city. It's also a dream come...

Why stop at 50? How about a thousand footer! And there's all kinds of open land across the street just being wasted, maybe a whole neighborhood of them. We can solve the housing crisis in a week!

This property is right at the gateway to the square and it currently looks terrible. People may or may not like the idea of the dispensary but the property has had a hard time keeping tenants. I think it will look good for now and someday this might be the site of an interesting development. The...
