Disruption. You heard it here first. Entrepreneurs, you have your marching orders.

When I was riding last summer, the ferry was the same type they use for Hingham, Salem, and whale watching. The boat actually still had whale watch info-graphics up (DID YOU KNOW A WHALE EATS A GAZILLION KRILL A DAY!!!), so they probably just moved it from the whale watch fleet. Door to door...

Or Cross and Lexington Street Markets. Seriously, Baltimore has a cool market, and they have two of them. Surely, if Baltimore can do it, so can Boston.

Man. Your state rep is head of the transpo committee and you can't even get that sweet sweet ferry money. What a sad state of affairs. I actually took the ferry a few times last summer when I had work up in Lynn in the PM. It was nice as hell to cruise out past Nahant, down through the Harbor...

Me too, and now that Tello's is closed, where am I supposed to buy suits that haven't been fashionable since the 80s?!

I was responding to your "slacktavism" comment. Anything else you want to take from that is extrapolation on your part.

If conservatives are going to insist that "if you don't like it, then vote with your dollar," then I have a hard time calling not giving dollars to a garbage operation like Chic-fil-a "slactivism," whatever that's supposed to be.

I'd love to be paid to work on the cutting edge study, "Does reducing stop time have a positive impact on travel time?" The fact that this is a question says so much about the MBTA, MassDOT, and BTD.

Remember when Americans (like Reagan) stood up against totalitarians (like the USSR) with strong human rights support? Well who needs human rights when we could have delicious chikin!!!

Franchisees still pay money to their franchisor, and Chik-fil-a's franchisor is still a flaming garbage pile.

Red lining, racially restrictive housing covenants, slum clearance rules in the Housing Act of 1949, FHA lending rules that required red lining and racial housing covenants, etc., etc., etc. Sorry to those who don't want to accept that this stuff all happened, or want to make the bizarre excuse...

The number one thing all these articles miss is how current trends fit into the larger arc of history. Urbanization has been the trend since the dawn of civilization. The only blip was ~1945-1995 when cheap land, cheap gas, and cheap money made suburbanization possible. Now the land isn't cheap...

Re: 2016 Presidential Primary Shouldn't the person asking have been the first sign this was a bad idea?

Google-able and yet not covered in the press?

I know I've been on it at lease once. Maybe even twice? Sorta seems like it's only useful for a very specific point to point trip. And for that, it's not even advertised well. Money well spent!

Haymarket - Navy Yard - Chelsea probably made a ton of sense when all three were major employment centers. That's a cool route.

That's a pretty hot take on Newbury.

As good as JEB! AKA horrible.

Ground level retail isn't "a strip mall." Is Newbury Street a strip mall? You're making an assumption that higher ed and ground level interaction are mutually exclusive. They aren't. You don't even have to look passed our own city for an example like Emerson. Even BU itself has examples of...

That's really just a misnomer. There are plenty of parcels that can either be built on or densified. The list of unused city, state, and MBTA parcels alone is huge. Then you've got the whole Rutherford Ave, Melnea Cass, Fairmount, and Southwest Corridors. I'm not saying we don't need to pay...
