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

    Respectfully disagree (as I think you are referring to Harbor Tower residents). The vast majority of rich people "in Boston" either don't live in Boston (at all, or on a full time basis) or don't really give a hoot who their city councillor or even Mayor is. You have some strong neighborhood...

    Echelon Seaport | 133-135 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

    Re: Seaport Parcels M1-M2 | Seaport Sq. | Seaport It looks like Assembly Square on Arnold's 1970s steroids/work out schedule. In a good way. This is a total game changer for Seaport Square. Between Parcels B, C and M1/M2, we are looking at about 2000 new residential units (800 condo which is...

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    On the subject of parcels, the master developer really needs to rename Q Park. I'm fine with Autumn Lane Park if it has to be called that (though that would still be awful), but telling people that you bring your dog to run around at Q Park elicits bewildered faces, let me tell you all.

    🔹 What's Happening With Project X?

    Maybe we can expect a wave of starts before Fed hikes interest rates at next meeting, as is widely speculated? I'm not sure if the interest rates for CRE borrowing are fixed or float and when they lock in (at time financing agreement is signed or when formal construction starts?)...

    🔹 What's Happening With Project X?

    Regarding Parcels H and J: As of yesterday there were notices placed on cars on that side of Seaport Boulevard proclaiming no parking from 8/12 on for Tishman Construction. And the lot where Yotel is going has been empty this week. Fingers crossed that starts are imminent.

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    Hmmm...South Boston is a neighborhood with boundaries, yes. The areas and places within South Boston, no. And even the city disregards its own boundary lines. On St. Patrick's Parade day bars close early in South Boston. But not all of South Boston. The dividing line is Congress Street. So...

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    Does it really make sense to split out Fort Point from Seaport? I live on Congress Street and walk my dog over to Q Park. Am I really leaving the neighborhood? What if I cross Seaport Boulevard to Fan Pier park? That's a 5 minute walk (or it was before the parcel B & C jersey barriers came...

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

    Re: One Seaport Square | Parcels B-C@Seaport Sq. | Seaport As I mentioned in earlier pages (or perhaps a different thread) the other potential tenants WS Development is in negotiation with are of extremely high quality and desirability, whether you are a local, tourist or neighbor. Once the...

    50 Liberty @ Fan Pier | 50 Liberty Drive | Seaport

    I don't understand how the top render fits into the development parcel. What angle is that from?

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    Yes! Between these parcels and the second Fan Pier condo building, we will have 4 more starts in the coming months. Would be great to see Skanska start on the second L Parcel and for Pier 4 phase II to get moving. I'm not sure if anything else is close to the horizon?

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

    I think it makes Waterside Place look like a work of art. The blue "graphics" are hideous and ill-conceived. The rear end looks like a mental ward, prison, post-war public housing project or 70s era state university dorm. This should be on the schedule for worst new building of 2015. I live...

    That is the best thing I've heard all day.

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

    You can now see the crane and the "construction crown" from Congress Street in Fort Point.

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport I actually think it's one of the only bank branches in SPID. I think there is a BOA branch in the Manulife building? They were handing out bottles of water and cookies Saturday morning. No dog treats though. Amateurs... I'm happy that the Vertex...

    121 Seaport Boulevard | Parcel L2 | Seaport Square

    Re: Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels) No. Autumn Lane will run parallel to the back of L1 and L2. It terminates at Boston Wharf Road going west (where Q Park is) and East Service Road going East.

    121 Seaport Boulevard | Parcel L2 | Seaport Square

    Re: Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels) Wow. This has made my Friday. Is this spec office space? Are there tenants signed?

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

    I was on the 14th floor of the Fed today looking toward MT. It already really stands out from everything else in its immediate vicinity. It will look absolutely monstrous from that vantage point once it tops off.

    Seaport Square (Formerly McCourt Seaport Parcels)

    It's a fantastic small park. Lots of kids on weekends. Dogs playing in AM and late afternoon. And a lot of weekday lunch pick up basketball. Right now it happens to look like total garbage because all of the snow having melted and the lack of a winter maintenance crew. It didn't look nearly...
