Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport Selective enforcement is nauseating, as it happens with the shadow law, 40B and many others. But as Stellar points out, CLF has standing and knows the law thoroughly. The timing is curious though, and I find it...

Re: Whiskey Priest/Atlantic Beer Garden Redevelopment | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seapo Anyone who challenges you on this organization is being disingenuous. CLF is a joke at best, severely corrupted at worst. Anyone who has dealt with them realizes this. That, combined with sympathetic partners in...

It is a good thing. If a property owner want to maintain their properties as is, so be it. That is their right as a property owner. Despite the best efforts of the SJW crowd, the fact is that no one has an absolute right to live anywhere where they do not own the property. And it is not for...

Then they should have bought the space themselves.

45 Province had a giant one on their ugly black wall for many years.

I think it's safe to assume it looked good in the CAD drawings. What an eyesore that back is, but I'm sure it will be entertaining if nothing else.

Sans the 3rd one, those are some pretty futuristic looking buildings!

At the risk of derailing the thread - It is a quote attributed to Roman "philosopher" Boethius and is on many a courthouse or other government building facade. For further analysis for anyone interested along with a quote from the article...

Given what MIT paid, this hardly seems to be a preferential deal for MIT. In fact, the Feds did quite well. If he knows anything, it's Real Estate and more than "getting even" he is about maximizing the return. Of course, the devil is in the details. I wouldn't even consider MIT to be that...

Re: Bulfinch Crossing Residential Tower|Phase I GCG| 50 New Sudbury| Boston 2020 opening? I understand it's complicated with the garage and all but 3 full years seems very slow. Maybe I'm spoiled.

Re: The Icon (née Western Ave Residence) | 530 Western Ave | Brighton Exactly. If I am reading it correctly, there you have Drexel driving the process the build over the reclaimed rail lines, and to build big and dense. We will be lucky to see anything over 10 stories at the Allston Pike...

Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Exactly. That will never happen here, other than "infrastructure" funding.

Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Yes, he brilliantly executed his game plan with the acquisitions. The underlying issue here is that this is Boston and it's not as easy. Look what happened to him in the Seaport. Without heavy political backing it's incredibly difficult to get...

I couldn't agree more. I worked in that area for 7 years (no longer) and although it's better now, there is tremendous lack of food establishments, let alone simple retail.

That's what I figured. This board would have been jumping if that thing had started already.

The last paragraph in the article posted by bigpicture7 states that it is: "Reconfiguring the garage for operation during construction is due to be complete by this month. Construction of Pelli Clarke Pelli’s tower is already underway and slated for completion in 2019. Further construction...

Re: Site in Hub top choice for a soccer stadium Two organizations that deserve each other. I don't think either will budge and we will shortly be looking at a new prospective venue floating around. I'd be curious to know who leaked the stalemate. In general though, I don't see public...

Yet we continue to fail in upgrading. How exit 17 (Rt 135) going northbound on 128/95 was not upgraded is beyond me. It is a short half cloverleaf off ramp with a very sharp turn at the bottom of a 1-2 mile hill. While I understand a diamond may not have worked due to preserved land, how there...

I can't see the Spinners moving, unless capacity is an issue. They sell out every game and are quite the economic engine for Lowell.

Sometimes yes, but I'm not the one arguing to preserve the views. I'd wall the lyrical little bandbox off if I could.
