    Silver Line - Phase III / BRT in Boston

    I guess you just figured out what I was referring to as "beautiful." The LRT. Absolutely I agree that the Silver Line stations are the nicest - only because I've seen tons of pictures. But I've never had the need, or desire, to use the transit within.

    Boston Skyline Photos

    I love every view of Harvard Stadium. It's magnificent. It's really a shame it's not right in the center of the city somewhere. Or perhaps closer to the water on the Esplanade.

    Silver Line - Phase III / BRT in Boston

    No. Why would I want to?

    Boston population rises to 645K

    People should care about his citizenship because he is attending an American public institution that in one way or another, receives federal funds. That's not to say he shouldn't be given the opportunity - but naturalization is a debate for another day. How is my proposal not addressing a...

    Silver Line - Phase III / BRT in Boston

    Oh...it's so beautiful...why, Boston, why?

    Longfellow Bridge update

    To be honest, the only historic aspects of the bridge I care for are made of stone. I wouldn't mind if they tore out all the old ironwork, and the entire traffic deck, and totally reconstructed them with new materials in a contemporary style. In fact, I think it would look pretty damn cool. How...

    Boston population rises to 645K

    Or they can have a system in place with regional in-state tuition agreements. How about this: if an illegal immigrant is in fact in the United States illegally, they do not have my proposed federal identification card (passport, SSN, or national driver's license?) they are subsequently unable...

    Cambridge Crossing (NorthPoint) | East Cambridge/Charlestown | Cambridge/Boston

    Re: NorthPoint Cambridge (The one that was train yards, the big plan.) I meant in more in the case of a suburban diaspora. Once all the suburbanites embrace their urban lifestyles, we can take all their (less valuable) land and turn it into industrial uses, etc.

    MIT Expansion Plans | MIT/Kendall Square | Cambridge

    I was just thinking that, jass. Could've been a nice "quad" type of element. Also, is Sloan really a competitive school (relative to MIT's other schools)? I feel like MIT and a business school don't exactly go hand in hand, but I guess the "IT" part is a bit of a misnomer at this point.

    Avenir

    You know, for all the hate Avenir gets, I love it. Sure, not exactly a stunner. But it's not supposed to be. It brings (potential) residential into the area, and it a nice piece of infill. Once retail spaces get leased out and signage for tenants is added, it won't seem like such a landscaper.

    Allston-Brighton Infill and Small Developments

    Even the description of their design needs to incorporate the ironic! For chrissakes guys, give it a rest! Look cool and be done with it! I've got to give them credit for their corporate headquarters, though. It's pretty damn cool.

    Avalon North Station | Nashua Street Residences | West End

    Re: Nashua Street Residences (North Station) Shouldn't the fact that it went under be an indicator of future success?

    Boston population rises to 645K

    When will the numbers from the 2010 census be released? I wonder how the 2009 estimate will measure up to the actual measured numbers.

    🔷 Open Thread

    So, arriving a little later and missing out on a spot towards the front is bad idea? As nice as having two bars on the sides sound, it's an all ages show and I'm not of drinking age, so I doubt they'll be serving much of anything.

    Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown

    Avalon North Station | Nashua Street Residences | West End

    Re: Nashua Street Residences (North Station) Dude, you really need to slow down. Every single area with the slightest hint of a problem, you seem to suggest making into either Times Sq. or Greenwich Village. Really? Give it a rest. It's not NYC. We don't want it to be NYC. In case you didn't...

    Longfellow Bridge update

    I'd love to see them completely redo the roadway, with full bike lanes on either lane as well as nice, wide sidewalks. Perhaps do away with a lane of traffic?
