Not directly IMP related per se, but here's a list of the other units Northeastern is leasing out to social distance on-campus students as much as possible. Essentially, they've just expanded their footprint in all of the LPs they already use and are taking over the entirety of the Midtown Hotel...

I agree in principle with you, but as most everyone else has said on here, it seems as these claims are fairly unfounded. Others have shown some plans to better illustrate their point, but I think the building's interaction with Tremont Street is best seen in this concept art photo. Quite...

Personally had a really tough time deciding on the best infrastructure project. Was torn between the Red/Blue line connector, GL Transformation, NorthSouth Rail Link, and the City Hall Plaza renovations.

I honestly think that the red-blue connector is a real possibility in the next ten or so years. Might be pushed back a bit because of how much corona has decreased revenue coming in.

Northeastern's Lightview dorm building

Northeastern’s EXP proposal.

That project you're referring to is the second iteration of ISEC, EXP. Should fill in the empty void between the existing ISEC building and the parking garage...

Stuck behind a paywall. Anybody have a summary?

The protective fencing in the Renaissance garage is being installed on all floors, not just the 9th and 10th.

This doesn't work for those of us with wallets with RFID protection embedded within.

That trailer has been there a while, no? But I wouldn't be surprised if it was for EXP and/or 840 Columbus Ave. I know there was a lot of Skanska (the same company behind ISEC) shipping crates previously on the EXP lot in addition to the aformentioned trailer (which might've had Skanska branding...

The EXP lot has been mostly cleared, including a trailer that’s been on there for months. Wouldn’t be surprised if they break ground very soon. Wasn't my intent, but you can also see some of the preventative fencing they've installed to the 10th floor of the Renaissance Parking Garage. Same...

So after cross referencing some pictures, that fence has always been there. The new addition was simply reinstalling the fence in the corner where the Lightview leasing office was. On the topic of fences, it seems that they’ve added suicide-prevention fences to the top of the Renaissance...

My bad, was off by 5! I meant 840, the site of the dorm they want to build right across from the garage. If I’m in the area I’ll try and take a pic, but it really isn’t anything fancy. Just some black fence.

Some black fence has been installed around the 840 Columbus Lot. Nothing high enough to stop people from getting into the space, however. Weird decision.

Yeah, that's what I was mostly emphasizing when I said "quick." Wasn't 100% which of those buildings they owned outright and which ones were just leased properties.

In one of the latest updates about the new developments coming to 835 Columbus Ave (or maybe it was about EXP, can't quite remember), this plot of land and the empty Ryder parking lot were emphasized as two of NEU's highest priorities. If I had to guess, Punters/Burstein/Rubenstein would be...

Yikes, I severely underestimated their presence there, my bad.

Hm, interesting. I made a quick (and I mean quick) map of Northeastern's land claims on their campus. Aside from the few offices they have in the CSC, this land acquisition seems kind out of left field, especially considering just how isolated it is from everything else.
