    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport FWIW, most business entities are incorporated in Wilmington b/c corporate legal jurisprudence is taken very seriously there - they have their own "chancery" division that takes all business law cases. Taxes aren't very relevant - LLCs and LPs pay a...

    30 Dalton St. Residences | Back Bay

    Not to mention heroin junkies and degenerate gamblers pretty much every day. Curious to see how the new development and the residents that come to inhabit it deal with these folks, who have been inhabiting Bulfinch Triangle for quite awhile.

    The New Retail Thread

    There are 4: 3 on Congress St (1 in Fort Point and 2 next to each other right past Waterside Place) 1 on Northern Ave.

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    Usually you are hot air meets J. Peterman catalogue but this is just a lousy, cynical and ignorant statement. In so many different ways. You know what makes NYC just as great as its resident nuclear families? The non-nuclear ones, the serial bachelors/ettes and other random folk that create...

    Residential Project | 45 West Third | South Boston

    Agree, KO is never open and it has always irritated the hell out of me. They are as much of a neighborhood restaurant as bees knees on Farnsworth is a grocery store for fort point. I'd be happy to see both replaced by businesses that are invested in the neighborhood....and that are actually...

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport Are you kidding me? You should really try and visit the place once in awhile.

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    As a resident who happens to work at One IP in an office facing Seaport Blvd., it blows my mind that people sit in traffic on three different bridges to get on highways they can access in the Seaport. I don't understand.

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    If we were to do congestion charging, which is a good idea, it needs to be a regional effort across parts of Suffolk, Middlesex and Norfolk counties. Otherwise the zone will be too easy to evade. In my own experience of living in the neighborhood, the destruction of the seaport lots has...

    The New Retail Thread

    The notice we received indicated "75 Seaport" is proposed by owner of the other two "75" restaurants (and Cheers).

    The New Retail Thread

    CVS poster is up on the large retail space underneath the main building of The Watermark Seaport. There is also a neighborhood meeting on 5/24 at 6pm in Factory 63 to discuss "75 Seaport" a new restaurant seeking a liquor license. There will also be a presentation on converting parts of the...

    The New Retail Thread

    I'd say yes. I think this 2 block radius is the coffee capital of Boston. BTW, Cafe Nero is great!

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    Agree. You guys heard of Zappos? I haven't purchased shoes in a store in years, save for a pair of Toms on Lincoln Road due to bad packing for a Florida trip. Stores are show rooms these days. Maybe M parcel will bring in throwback retail, but probably more along the lines of Apple than a DSW.

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    The enormous post office is right across the Summer Street bridge and has expanded hours. We don't need a branch in the Seaport (unless part of a land swap deal). CVS and grocery story is what we need. If apartment/condo construction keeps up then a lot of this should be self-executing...

    Limited-service Hotel Project | 73 Essex St | Chinatown

    +1. Chinatown is mostly a dump and it is largely the fault of those folks and companies who own it's real estate. If it were not a Chinatown and in the same rough shape it would have been bulldozed and built up already. It's downtown Boston, what do people expect? Absent strong efforts from...

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    Re: Congress Street Garage Development | West End Was walking down that stretch of Greenway at lunch. Would love tall-boy redevelopment of Dock Square garage and that disgusting lot across the G-way in the North End. How and why does that parking lot still exist?

    The Quinn (née The Berkeley) | 370-380 Harrison Ave | South End

    Was also thinking it could - fingers crossed - be a One Greenway. Really drab overall though, particularly when compared to the newer construction around it. Looks like someone died and gave pine street inn $50M.

    Harrison Ave Hotel | 15 Harrison Avenue | Chinatown

    If it were a week from today I'd call this entire thread an elaborate archboston hoax. What money is behind this project? Who would pony up to build something so stupid looking? At the same time, I really want this to happen. Would make the kensington thread look like bean bag.
