Re: Jacob Wirth's Maybe the long-dormant plans for the McDonalds building down the street at the corner of Washington & Stuart will come back to life? Renderings anyone?

Re: Parcel 24 You say "nothing like Chinatown"? When I think of Chinatown, I think of the Mass Pike Towers. Parcel 24 is an improvement ...

Re: Jacob Wirth's You know, if Jacob Wirth's get built that big, then I think we are definitely seeing a renaissance in building in the DTX / theater district. Other developers will start considering the area, no? Perhaps they should think about putting something like the Grand Marc down here...

Re: Green Line to Medford to start in 2011 Jiminy Cricket, if you turn this into another conversation about soccer stadiums, I'm gonna ... I don't know what.

Re: New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center It's funny, from the rendering above, the Gloucester is putting shadows on the new Avalon tower, not the other way around ... So, suck it, current residents.

Re: New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center No, the opposition to 888 isn't height, it's density, silly. Well, height as well. But mostly density. That's my take, as well. At least, it's my concern.

Wait, you're implying real estate agents want people to consider moving into new construction? Why would any downtown real estate agent want this? They want you in the brownstones and bow-fronts.

Re: Driven By Customer 'Service' Parte Dos This is gonna suck, especially if you're an abutter! Imagine having to look out at an advertisement every hour, every day, every year. From this week's Boston Courant, by Galen Moore: Included with the story was a photo of the exterior of the Back...

Yes, thank you, "Tim Jackson". Good information. The rendering is worthwhile not for what it shows but also for what it doesn't. Namely, the Courthouse to one side and the highrises that will be built behind it (where the white "walls" are). The architect and/or developer says this will be...

Quote: "Developers who win approval to build major projects would have 18 months to get started or face having to return to City Hall to explain the delay, Boston?s top development regulator said yesterday." Wow, there's a lot of bite in that regulation! Scary!

Re: Columbus Center Well, we've exhausted this. Topic: closed.

Re: Green Line to Medford to start in 2011 "It's really really great," the sales team lady said, smiling weakly. "Twelve percent sold, only 88 percent to go!"

Re: Green Line to Medford to start in 2011 So I guess the Globe has a new reporter?

Re: Columbus Center Here is a bit more from the South End News: MySouthEnd.com Keith gets it wrong on Columbus Center To the editor: I strongly disagree with many of the statements made by John Keith in his editorial. The project known as Columbus Center went sour from its very inception...

Re: Columbus Center I don't even know how to respond to that. My column was reviewed around 20 times by the editor at the South End News. If there are any holes in my arguments, they were missed by both me and by her. Saying that brokers only approve of this project because it will mean...

Re: Filene's Not on subject, per se, but I have to say, during the three or four community meetings I've been to, I've been surprised at how ill-at-ease Mr Hynes has been. He seems uncomfortable and a bit distracted. Not necessarily distaste of the process, but disdain? I don't know if...

Ha ha, you know I was joking. Next up we should try to find someone who still reads Harper's ... or the Atlantic.
