    Gillette leaving Southie.

    I completely agree, retail space only being 3.5% of GFA is very concerning for a project like this. We want vibrancy and street-level activity, not the sterility of suburban office parks.

    Better MBTA Station Names

    Church Street should be named "Tarkiln Hill", but the ideal time to pick that name was obviously before they built the station. I don't think there's any chance of the station name being changed for a very long time, unless New Bedford residents strongly advocate for a name change.

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    In terms of far-future possibilities, would it ever make sense to build a Springfield <-> Worcester regional rail line? (separate from the Worcester Line, not an extension of it.) A commuter service between Springfield and Worcester would connect Central Mass and the Knowledge Corridor with...
