I'm pissed Swish Shabu is closed, place was awesome.

Re: General Electric HQ | 244-284 A Street | Fort Point What a surprise

I thought Brookline was going to build another school on the Stop & Shop site?

Re: Harbinger Development - 411 rm hotel | Summer Street | Seaport Well the bistro/cafe are probably going to be part of the Hampton/Homewood lobby as that is a Hilton requirement these days. My guess is the 3,500 SF is all for the brewery. I would caution though that I highly doubt this gets...

Emerald Island Overlay District zoning passed on Tuesday at town meeting. The developer of the Homewood Suites at 111 Boylston now has the zoning change needed to build an 11-story Hilton Garden Inn on the site of the former Gulf station on the corner of Brookline Ave and Route 9...

Re: Hotel Tower | 560 Commonwealth Ave | Kenmore Square I second this. It will never happen and if it does, it won't be with this developer.

Re: Skanska Fenway Project (Burger King) | 1350 Boylston Street | Fenway Can anyone elaborate on the gas station deal being "done"? Is it the same owner as the Shaw's and are they going to redevelop that entire corner? I thought the Shaw's just did a pretty major renovation.

Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett I played golf with a few friends who work for Massport and Shawmut, they all said Wynn is having a major impact on their ability to get subcontractors for their projects

I may be late to the party but does anyone know what the status is of expanding the BCEC itself? Is that still on hold?

If it's state-owned land shouldn't they be required to go through an RFP?

I thought Chestnut Hill Realty bought that garage a few years for $11M? They own the abutting parcels as well but they're not in the hotel business.

Nope you are correct, I just neglected to mention that. Considering they bought the land for $45M back in 2011 and sold the apartment land for $70k/unit...I'd say they did pretty well here!

New England Development just sold it for $206MM to American Realty Advisors

The hotel had its first guests spend the night last night.

Re: Harbinger Development, 411 rm hotel | Summer Street | Seaport Go on Marriott or Hilton website and try to get a hotel in Boston tonight and let me know what you'll be paying... Boston does not have enough hotel rooms, especially of the select-service/extended-stay brand.

Any idea where the additional apartments will be located and who the developer will be? I assume it will be in between the assisted living building and the train station A few other points: - I've never heard of someone asking for a gas station to be built anywhere, Rt. 1 is 5 minutes away and...

Apparently you can do 2 levels of noncombustible material with 5 levels of wood frame over that. I'm not sure if that is what this developer is doing but the 2 and 5 construction is becoming fairly common these days to keep costs down.

Extended Stay America is not affiliated with Marriott. Did you mean to say it will become an extended stay brand affiliated with Marriott? If that's the case it would include one of Residence Inn or Townplace Suites flags although there is no way Marriott would approve a Residence Inn flag here...

I went to Suffolk my freshman year, lived on the 8th floor of 150 Tremont with a view of the entire common. Unreal. I went back to visit friends after I had transferred and they had moved into 10 West, I couldn't believe how nice those apartments were.

Glad to hear that! I work for an owner & developer so this is basically what I do all day.
