    If you designed a metro/subway for Worcester, MA how would it look?

    So my gut feeling at looking at these, specifically the light rail, is that while it hits the main landmarks, it also misses vast areas where people actually live. I think a good (idealistic) compromise is 4 lines: Line 1 (Rt. 12 parallel) Mountain QCC Higgins Gold Star/Indian Lake...

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    Nope, ignore my post - I was just going based on visuals and overall width, looks like they striped it different so I'm wrong. Not the first time and definitely won't be the last!

    Skylines and Developments of the US/World

    Now I want an urban BJ's! Maybe with a more limited selection than a full store, but I don't see too many negatives to having bulk quantities of "you need it anyway" stuff like toilet paper available to city residents where they don't need a car.

    Lyrik Back Bay | 1001 Boylston Street (Parcel 12) | Back Bay

    I was actually a bit sad when I visited because I know my late son would have loved watching the cars and trucks go under the building. I'm also a racing fan who likes just watching cars go, so I found it kind of zen.

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    One annoying thing about that bus lane was they kept the ability to turn left out of Pumphouse Rd. from the right lane, so I always forgot the bus lane was there and had to bail quickly. Making that right lane right turn only would have kept at least some cars out of it.

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    It's the same - 3 lanes in either direction. Looks a bit smaller without all the traffic you're used to seeing. https://maps.app.goo.gl/AJvppivTahhe8wzTA

    "Dirty Old Boston"

    Man, that dusk shot of the Back Bay and the Longfellow looks so empty. I was born in '85, so many of those photos have an Uncanny Valley vibe to me, it looks sort of like the Boston I grew up knowing, but not quite. That's especially true for those photos at the Tea Party with the Traveler's...

    Glorious! I don't know what the bigger flex is - the 4 person jacuzzi (who needs that in a master bath?), or the sink in the kitchen island.

    Hell yes! That place in Lincoln is awesome! I wouldn't change a thing about it. Is the pool area the only "man cave" space in it?

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    I seem to recall a Hammett's school supply store being in there way, way back. The chain closed in 2005 and StreetView shows the storefront as empty since at least '07 so the timeline matches up.
