    147 W Fourth Street | South Boston

    Wow, this is going to stick out like a sore thumb but I am glad the area around the Broadway T at Broadway and A is building more dense, as it is transit oriented and there are taller mid-rises across Widett Circle at Ink Block, there are more mid-rises coming on Old Colony and Dot Ave...

    Medford Life Science Park | 278-326 Mystic Ave | Medford

    It seems in the climate of height-averse NIMBYism, lab buildings continue to prevail in getting as much height for their zone as possible and it never being a problem. Case in point in Gingko's new building(s) and others near ISQ, Southie labs that are 4-5 stories amongst a sea of 4 over 1...

    MassDOT Rail: Springfield Hub (East-West, NNERI, Berkshires, CT-Valley-VT-Quebec)

    A summer pilot to spur tourism to Boston from SPG wouldn't be bad, like the CapeFlyer, and the distance and fleet is the same. I wonder if ridership would be over 100? For Friday/Sat/Sunday service

    MassDOT Rail: Springfield Hub (East-West, NNERI, Berkshires, CT-Valley-VT-Quebec)

    As of right now, is it impossible with the tracks and schedules to run a once a day round-trip trial commuter rail train from SPG to BOS? With the proper adjustments and projects is it feasible? Just an MBCR train, nothing more.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Beautiful to see the core rise above the station! My parents live down on the South Shore and the only building that really sticks out from very far away is the Pru. I do see this building being the new "beacon" from the South Shore and the Expressway (and other places to the south such as South...

    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    This is a very open ended question - but does Boston stand a chance at getting Breeze routes to Breeze's hubs like how LA and SF have?

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    Can development pundits explain the process of 7-eleven being redeveloped? Is that plot owned by 7-11? A franchisee? Or is it rented to 7-11? Is something corporate like that easier to buy out of its spot vs. a small business? It would be great if that spot being a 7-11 meant it wouldn't be a...

    Widowmaker of Braintree is opening a Boston location soon ish in 2023 with a kitchen as well per this IG post below. They are keeping the location secret until they have their patio work done and a sign to go up. If anyone has an idea of where this is opening I'd love to know!

    Crazy Highway Pitches

    This might be a reasonable pitch - however I see little action behind it and maybe a little eminent domain land claiming. As a reverse commuter who is constantly plagued by the Mass Pike Newton Corner eastbound exit backup during afternoon rush, I have seen that this is a silly problem that...

    MBTA Construction Projects

    What headhouse needs to be rebuilt next? Personally, I do think some of the blue line stations need to be enclosed better. Those are very old anyway. Back Bay may be a bit worn down and ready for some rehab.

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    2/3 of the way up. I love this project for Maverick Square. Now if we could consistently build 6+ stories in the area

    Lego HQ Moving to Boston

    I wouldn't be surprised if they were tenants in a new building. This is a huge deal of a new office in Boston. Also, Reebok space is too far from public transit and not very close to anything imo. Seaport has more buildings to go up and I wouldn't be surprised if one of those was home to...

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    I live right near these spots and it's so refreshing that after some delay during covid, all of these projects got going so fast. There is another one in Maverick that has yet to be approved and lots more infill in Jeffries Point. Lots. Once more is built I hope some more community businesses...
