    New England Revolution Stadium | 173 Alford Street | Boston-Everett

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Everything Data said here and more. I love tailgating at Gillette (especially in warm weather), but if I have to give it up in order to have a downtown stadium with T access, count me in. I LOVE the fact that tailgating at a soccer match is a...

    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    Having flown to Mexico City a couple of years ago, the 4:25am arrival time into Mexico City was a big factor why I didn't book (via SkyMiles) with AeroMexico and flew Delta via JFK instead. I've got to think that late night/early AM arrival is far from ideal for people considering a nonstop...

    New England Revolution Stadium | 173 Alford Street | Boston-Everett

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Should a Revs stadium get built, there's no way it sits idle without concerts or other sporting events. There's sure to be international friendlies played there, especially given the ease of flying in from Europe into Logan. Plus with 20-25k...

    New England Revolution Stadium | 173 Alford Street | Boston-Everett

    Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium I've been a Revs season ticket holder since year 2 of their existence (1997). In that time, I've commuted to Foxboro (both the old Foxboro and Gillette) from Peabody, Lowell and North Andover. The commute sucks and it's been a noted problem for...

    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    What I'm waiting to see is how this new fare class will effect co-branded credit card holders. I currently have a Barclay's JetBlue Plus MasterCard. If I book a Blue (basic) fare, I get baggage allowances included.

    South Bay Center Expansion | Dorchester

    Jan Karski Way is being extended to connect to Boston Street and the existing Courtyard. I know, because I worked on the plans.

    Yeah, I remember the Logan FB page used to share the photos of someone who would routinely capture the goings-on at Logan and this was from a collection of diversions from JFK due to weather.

    And if you want to be the designer who gets sued because that one truck following Waze went down a street , hopped a curb and ran over a kid - well, have fun with that. Setting the stop bar back means reducing the storage capacity of the turn lane, which in turn eliminates a huge benefit of...

    Correct. NW used to use A332s on this route. I flew it AMS-BOS back in 2005.

    Rather than try to insult my intelligence and use fictional numbers to make an argument, I'm going to use real numbers by looking at the cover sheet of the design plan set and focusing on the "T" column. That's your percentage of trucks as part of the overall daily and peak traffic volumes. For...

    Hi, Professional Traffic Engineer here. God forbid an engineer design geometric improvements in order to accommodate a WB-series truck for a design speed of 30 or 35 MPH for roadway intersections that are not 90 degrees and such that the truck will not encroach into the opposite lanes, thus...

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

    Was at the Garden last night for U2 and the east side escalators have been completely walled off, presumably for the new connection from Champions Row into the building.

    I know that at one point Delta operated this route as part of it's Song service with 757s (I flew it), with a late afternoon departure, IIRC.

    I-90 Interchange Improvement Project & West Station | Allston

    Perhaps Harvard realized that by upping the seed money now, and pushing for interim improvements (on top of a permanent station), they can expedite the build-out of the area and not only recoup the initial outlay, but profit off it down the line.
