That’s an absurdist statement on varying levels.

Be careful what you wish for

As someone who has gone hard in the paint on Boston, I don’t think that it’s fair to pin this on Wu. The increasing costs are mere circumstantial and will only exacerbate with the impending tariffs.

I know exactly what you meant by that word. Which - to your point - has merit most of the time and it could very well be the case with the Franklin Park Defenders. They could be part of the Bourgeois but I don’t see that here. I see reactionary members of a community who are well-meaning in...

Delicious NIMBY tears for everyone!!!

That whole Tea Party foolishness was goofy. I wouldn’t compare that to a communist activist dressing up like the Lorax. It’s also not bourgeois. NIMBY? Sure. Bougie? Not necessarily. On a related note, if anyone wants to be a solider in the Franklin Park Defenders, here’s your chance!

Well…anything is better than a Trump store.

1) That’s not part of his role 2) Why would be tell them to hit the Pike? The logistics sound like they’ve been put in place to make this happen. I agree on the design flaws, but again. These are CONCEPTUAL designs.

It wasn’t always that way. I agree that housing is needed. Aesthetics aside, that stretch was NOT a place for a lab.

Not a fan of the lower case lettering on the electronic sign. With that said, I’m not too concerned as it’s a mockup.

If I still ate chicken and if I still drank, I’d be down there lickedy split

If it’s growing, then I take it back. I always assumed that most of the black Boston ppl moved to other parts. I’m glad it’s coming back. My point was about how there are different types of NIMBYism. White NIMBYism and black NIMBYism. White NIMBYism is backed by money and black NIMBYism is...

https://whdh.com/news/protesters-voice-concern-over-white-stadium-project-in-franklin-park/ Say what you want about THESE particular NIMBYS - and I have - but they are good. They are wicked good. They have someone community activist to dress up like the Lorax to make a point. That is good...

Now, THAT’s a title. Unfortunately, aB has officially gone to the dogs 🐕

What a coincidence. Massachusetts is full of spoiled and selfish NIMBYS. I hope Healey crushes these towns. Crushes them. One of the few times I’m in full support of government going after the people. They need to be broken. Their will power must be crushed.

Nice. I know a city planner from Gloucester. Lives in Annisquam.

Wow. It’s like I didn’t know history about the cancelled Inner Belt and Gov. Sargent’s moratorium on new highways (a choice he later regretted). Real talk though, I would tend to agree with you. Hence the forum name. 🤪

Me too. Also… https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/boston-traffic-delays-ranked-4th-worst-in-us-and-8th-worst-worldwide-report-shows/3409481/

I do. Boston, like I said, is a rare outlier in the argument for adding lanes. I also feel that we should extend the BL to Salem Depot. OL to Wilmington (Concord St). RL to Middlesex CC (Bedford), GL to Anderson (Woburn), RL and BL to Gillette Stadium. Watch me work.
