    Downtown Crossing/Financial District | Discussion

    I think Downtown Crossing would be an amazing stretch for a live music district. You could pick one side street with two corner bars on Washington St. and make sure they spill out into the street. Imagine how it would be in the summer. The only problem as I understand it is what to do with...

    MA Governor - Who Gets Your Vote?

    In my everyday life, I can now expect to have a Governor who isn't going to talk smack about me to people in other states. That's not policy related, but I'm very happy about it.

    A New City Hall? Maybe

    100% agree with TheBostonian and ablarc. City Hall would be a great sculpture museum, especially if returned to its original open floor plan.

    Why I love working/living in the city

    I'm pretty sure tricycle guy's not a crack addict at the moment. He's clearly disabled, maybe from some crack-related incident. He's been around and tricycling for a hell of a long time for someone who's addicted to crack.

    Doesn't Belkin have a pretty terrible reputation?

    Citgo Sign Debate

    Hmmm Sometimes a debate gets lost in the wilderness. To argue about who's worse between Bush and Chavez is at best useless. In my opinion, George W. Bush is a jackass precisely because he allows A-holes like Hugo Chavez, a textbook power hungry demagogue, to dictate the terms of the...

    welcome to america, now speak english

    That's been the case with every dominant economic area in all of history. It's when governments, nations, cultures begin to legislate ethnic and cultural stagnation that they begin to fail. Language laws are just this kind of legislation. It also strikes me as a somewhat fatalistic and...

    Boston To Attempt Citywide WiFi Network

    I think pandering to its citizens is what City government is supposed to do. I don't necessarily think Codman Square makes more sense than Copley Square, but I think it makes sense. It's a neighborhood center on a T line that can and does support dense population. Why wouldn't they put wifi...

    General MBTA Topics (Multi Modal, Budget, MassDOT)

    1. Dude: Please relax a little bit. 2. I think the Charlie Card system is great in theory. Unfortunately, the MBTA has completely botched its implementation. It's been over a year since the first station (I have my own problems with choosing Airport as the first station, since I and many...

    The Newbry (formerly New England Life Building)

    Back Bay! That is, until the snobby planners get involved and decide there's no room for anyone but the very upper class like they have in Downtown Crossing.

    The Newbry (formerly New England Life Building)

    Downtown Crossing I think Downtown Crossing should become THE restaurant/bar/live entertainment destination for Boston. It's right in the middle of all transit and is relatively devoid of residents to complain about noise, traffic etc...

    A question for those who drink Dunkin Donuts iced coffee

    While I agree that double-cupping is wasteful, it does prevent annoying excessive condensation.

    BU plans new dorms for 1,500 students

    If the first step to becoming emo is listening to emo music, how did the first emo person, who then created emo music, come to be? Also, why would someone listen to "faggy" music in order to impress girls?
