Speaking of which, does anyone by chance have a copy of The South Bay Planning Study, Phase I Report from 2004? This was a joint publication by the BRA (sic) and Massachusetts Turnpike Authority (sic). I found 10 pages of it (out of 69 pages, I think?) on one guy's website but can't find the...

In my experience, the 3-bedrooms never rent out close to list price because there aren't a lot of people who want to spend that much who want to live in these apartments - they'll buy instead or take short-term housing if they're coming temporarily. Developers are pressured to include...

I don't know. I also don't know why someone would be randomly checking the "tallest buildings in Boston" Wikipedia page on a regular basis .. unless they were looking for something specific ... Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Hold on. Something's wrong there. The edits should have been done to One Bromfield, not South Bay Tower. At least it appears to be that since if you click on the reference next to South Bay Tower, it brings you to the bottom of the page where you can click through to see the reference document...

NEMA Boston is advertising its apartments with some availability on 12/1/2019. Studios: $2555-3185 1-beds $3130-4270 2-beds $4640-5680 3-beds $6560-8770

I support the proposal to sell the Hynes and expand the BCEC and to give ~12 acres of land :🔙: to the City of Boston. Living in the shadow of the convention center, I'm very interested, although by the time this is all done, I'm sure we'll live somewhere else .. probably the Fenway, I'm...

Why not just move to a different city where they have these things and leave Boston the way it is/

Yes, I saw people inside with suitcases! No word on roof deck, though.

Meeting in Seaport tonight about plans to turn Blue Dragon in the Fort Point into a retail marijuana facility. Sounds good to me!

I was shocked last night to see this project under construction with completion date of next year - 259 apartments in downtown Lynn is quite an accomplishment. https://bostonrealestatetimes.com/colliers-announces-84-million-capitalization-of-259-unit-caldwell-apartment-tower-in-lynn/

Hold on. Parcel 15 was approved and the site cleared and porta-potties delivered .. and THEN Weiner Ventures cancels it? What does that have to do with the Hynes sale, if anything? From the developer:

Checking in for the first time in about a month. The new forum software seems acceptable, no? Imagine my surprise/ shock that no one has apparently mentioned the Boston Zoning Board of Appeals scandal that is enveloping the city???! Does everyone think it's much ado about nothing? One thing...

The buildings adjoining the parking lot were income-restricted until recently. I assume an agreement was made to make the parking lot development also income-restricted. Looks as though the property owner deals in that sort of thing. Website: https://www.schochet.com/

Yep, which is why it was stupid to add another lane for cyclists instead of for buses.

Well, the foundation HAS been dug up.

CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE ON PLANNING, DEVELOPMENT, AND TRANSPORTATION HEARING ON DOCKET #0879 A hearing on the proposed North-South Rail Link. The Chair of the Committee is Councilor Michelle Wu, and the Sponsor is Councilor Annissa Essaibi-George. THE PUBLIC CAN OFFER TESTIMONY...

Your concern is that the empty storefronts are going to be filled? My point perhaps different than yours but, more on what I was trying to say: From Bisnow: As other Boston neighborhoods have boomed this development cycle, Dudley Square and Roxbury haven’t seen the same rush of success...

I agree. Can someone break it down in black and white for me?

The last document on the BPDA website includes proposed changes to this project. Doc was published in .. 2016, I think? It says the developer was looking to change its original agreement to include 40 "affordable" units, presumably downward. Anyone know if this came to pass?

Totally. Also, 1) Then they'll begin construction on the adjoining lot now that it's gone out to bid (and has been awarded?), and we'll still be stuck. 2) I'm going to guess they aren't going to open the gate in the fence that goes down Congress Street, are they. It may not really end up...
