    They had Sam Adams perform at the MFA for that. So that could explain part of it.

    Oh god. For some reason, I feel like I would perpetually searching for the center food part of deep-fried butter.

    Fort Point Infill and Small Developments

    Alright, looking back, maybe I overreacted a bit. I still think this whole idea is silly and rather amateurish. I'm all for recreational use, but how about we focus on activating the edges of the canal instead of some fantasy island walk on water deal?

    Fort Point Infill and Small Developments

    The planning in this city is such a fucking joke. The area is greater than the Common? Who cares? It's water, not land. Not something you really compare, folks! Model boat races? Really? They managed to turn something great (allowing landowners to take advantage of their use of water) to...

    Boston 2050

    I thought we were arguing over the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Stat, I think that in order for a city to be great, it needs to be perceived by the general public as great. And I think that for the general public, skyscraper dick measuring is a common metric of greatness. At least...

    Maybe irrelevant, but that picture looked really stretched out. What, Stat, you're not a fan of Vampire and Werewolves and terrible writing, oh my?!

    Boston 2050

    I'm on Team Skyscrapers. There needs to be vertical density, so that when viewed from afar, the city seems larger. Many cities are perceived as being a lot larger than Boston, simply because there are fewer gaps in height. No one on this board would argue that skyline is superior to street-level...

    Lynn/Salem Revitalization Discussion

    Salem State is really looking up. The new dorm is actually very nice looking, although it sits in the middle of a park/parking lot. As is the freshly renovated Bertolon School of Business, right next to the new dorms. A new library will really help tie the campus together. I spent a good deal...

    Woah now. I wonder if I'll be eligible for that with the Autodesk Student Community thing? I know I can get Maya, not sure about AC. Either way, I miss the command line.

    Boylston West @ Fenway Triangle (Van Ness) | 1325 Boylston Street | Fenway

    Re: Developer plans $300M project for Fenway Yeah, I'll be honest, I'd love to live and work in the area, yuppie label be damned. This is a place where some luxury housing isn't really a terrible thing. It's a fairly cosmopolitan neighborhood, what with all the clubs, and Fenway Park does a...

    Re: Driven By Customer 'Service' Parte Dos The Salem Ferry is also $19 per round trip. A little bit high, in my humble opinion.

    Atlantic Wharf (née Russia Wharf) | Atlantic Ave | Waterfront

    Re: Atlantic Wharf (formerly Russia Wharf) Yeah, and the Financial District plus South Station is full of white collar professionals looking for a swanky bar to listen to some tunes, drink scotch, and generally pretend they live in the world of Mad Men.

    Movie Thread (Boston)

    I saw that trailer at Inception (which was fucking brilliant, <3 Chris Nolan) and I was like, really? Literally the single reason I would consider seeing it, is that it was filmed in Boston. It seemed like a hybrid of The Departed and The Dark Night with all the silly bank robber masks. (Those...
