    General MBTA Topics (Multi Modal, Budget, MassDOT)

    Interestingly, the documents don't note the Boylston curve as one of the infrastructure restrictions. Is this because it's not as severe as we think (and the screeches come from suboptimal engineering) or because it'll never be solvable and we just have to live with it? Your description...

    Park 151 | 151 N First Street | Cambridge Crossing | East Cambridge

    I believe we talked about this in the main Cambridge Crossing (nee North Point) thread—there was plenty of outrage a year or so ago.

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District Very happy about the external changes to the Great Hall entrance--it had disappeared in the previous version, which led to fears that the public space would become private due to lack of awareness/use. This is still a risk, and the developers still...

    The New Retail Thread

    New report on food trucks in US cities: https://www.foodtrucknation.us/ Guess where Boston lands? Last. (Or if you're an optimist: top 20!) This shouldn't be surprising to anyone as, outside of a few top-down scheduled, approved food truck stops in specific seasons, food trucks are extremely...

    Roslindale Infill and Small Developments

    Michelle Wu and other city councilors are on your side and look like they’re flexing more muscle this term (vs the typical mayor-council power dynamic).

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    Streetsblog writes about the untapped potential of Boston busses. The article summarizes LivableStreets Alliance's findings to improve the system. Most important: bus-only lanes (duh). Can you guess where they should go? As the article states: The short segment on Brighton Ave was recently...
