    The Loop @ Mattapan Station | Mattapan

    I think the legislature is more at fault then the city on this one.

    The Hub on Causeway (née TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End

    Re: The Boston Garden (TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End I think its a dead ringer for Atlantic Wharf

    Goodwin Procter HQ @ Fan Pier | 90 - 110 Northern Ave - Parcel I | Seaport

    Site is small but they must be considering a hotel there or at the other yet-to-be-developed parcel. With GE, BCEC and all the businesses moving there a hotel could definitely work. Would prefer residential here and a condo/hotel at the other site, though not sure if latter is large enough.

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport Yes I agree the MassPort plot has to be A-2, which your link pin points. Could end up as a slender tower. You have to assume the fiscal red carpet was rolled out for these guys so can't rule out this land being conveyed or 99-year leased to GE for...

    The St Regis Residences (former Whiskey Priest site) | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

    Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport 1. This building looks great! 2. The driving force of douchebaggery in the Seaport is Whiskey Priest and ABG, not steakhouses or Babbo or Empire. 3. 1000s and 1000s of residential units are in the pipeline...

    Mandarin Oriental | 776 Boylston St | Back Bay

    ^Agree. Waldorf is far more prestigious brand than Mandarin. And to echo earlier comments, the sale relates to the bankruptcy liquidation of the successor-in-interest to Anglo-Irish Bank, which is essentially the government of the Republic of Ireland. Anglo-Irish held a controlling interest...

    Gables Seaport (née Waterside Place 1B) | 505 Congress Street | Seaport

    Re: Waterside Place | 505 Congress Street | Seaport It kind of, sort of, almost resembles Watermark Seaport. Low hopes but glad the parcel will be filled in with something taller than what was originally planned. It is going to look odd, a white building next to a black building each with...

    100 Pier 4 | 136-146 Northern Avenue | Seaport

    Re: Pier 4 Residential Tower | 136-146 Northern Avenue | Seaport Agree 100%. These places are busy.

    [ARCHIVED] Harbor Garage Redevelopment | 70 East India Row | Waterfront | Downtown

    People can use other garages! Or take the T - to the station named after it! Just build this thing already.

    Pier 4 Condo Building (Former Anthony's site) | Seaport

    Re: Pier 4 Commercial-Condo Tower (Former Anthony's site) | Seaport Bingo. Unless the park is Commonwealth or Boston property no sane person would move into that building and take on the liability of someone falling in and drowning and having the owner's board/building sued for negligence...

    The Benjamin & VIA (née One Seaport Square) | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport

    Re: One Seaport Square | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport I gotta say that Bee's Knees is a terrible attempt to be a speciality market. Their hours are awful and geared toward office workers and their "market" consists of sparse pre-made food, chips, pasta and frozen goods. It's a lunch...

    Watermark Seaport | 85 Seaport Blvd - Parcel K | Seaport

    Wow that's great news! Right now we have to walk to South Station. Other than the Shake Shack next store in the PwC building, is anyone aware of the other retail moving into these new buildings?

    Ink Block (Boston Herald) | 300 Harrison Avenue | South End

    Putting aside which owner is acting like the biggest asshole, my take away is that there will eventually be two competing markets. One under 93 and one where the market currently is. That's probably a win for visitors and the surrounding communities. And perhaps the vendors as well, who may...

    Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown

    But who gives a shit that rich people will live in a kick ass building downtown? Where else would they live? And what's the difference if it were a office building and Bain leased the entire space? This whole "we've lost our soul" is dramatic, if not bonkers and demonstrates a naked agenda...

    MCCA Hotels: Aloft & Element | 371-401 D Street | South Boston

    I can deal with the Aloft. The Element looks like a casino that is getting ready for demolition. The rear looks like a prison. This is a lock for worst building of the year. It's an embarrassment to Boston.

    BHA Charlestown/Bunker Hill Redevelopment | Charlestown

    I bike along the Dorchester Harborwalk a bit and Columbia Point looks like a nice place to live. Granted I'm just cycling alongside it. But isn't the new BHA plan roughly based on that?

    The Benjamin & VIA (née One Seaport Square) | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport

    Re: One Seaport Square | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport Ah, I took the bait.

    The Benjamin & VIA (née One Seaport Square) | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport

    Re: One Seaport Square | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport Was that a joke? Or is this based off watching Boston mob movies? After spending the last 3 days working and living in Times Square, I'd be happy to correct the record and contrast with NYC which is full of losers both local and from...
