    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    I didnt for 2 reasons. 1, I was on my phone. 2, Im not going to argue with somebody and try to explain they didnt hear what they think they heard. or, its possible, but highly unlikely, somebody from the development team did actually say this. and in that case, then they were inaccurate...

    That's not an accurate description at all.

    Omni Hotel @ BCEC | Summer St | Seaport

    Agreed they are Moxy equivalent rooms for single convention goers just needing a bed. Makes the tower proportions on the outside nicer and was a design solution to fit on that end of the parcel (is what I was told during a tour).

    The New Retail Thread

    Cottonwood does not control the retail here. WS has been the retail for Seaport Sq even before they became the master developer for all of Seaport Sq.

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

    yeah, look just to the right to see how horizontal lines are terrible. the screening on the top of the building is atrocious. just terrible and plainly visible from 93 and Charlestown. the front of the building is nice too so its a shame. the renderings had so much more contrast between the...

    its everything that is below it (street, sidewalk, active head house, subway lines underground) not allowing for it to be 'demolished'. street will be closed when necessary (last part after East Parcel portion is cleared).

    Foundation Medicine (Parcel P) | 400 Summer Street | Seaport

    steel over the highway ramps (no easy feat getting this done). This was a great addition by WS that wasnt in original Seaport Sq master plan. Not only will it cover the ramps and help Congress St, it is going to greatly extend the street wall along Summer St and partially block out the view of...

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    the existing diverter island is going to become much smaller with the space given to the courthouse sidewalk. crazy angles of the roads doesnt allow for the full removal of either channelized right turn (this corner or the one diagonally across) but both islands are being reduced as much as...

    Biking in Boston

    I believe the poster was saying to use existing cross section where there is already bike lanes and make the 2nd travel lane in each direction a bus lane next to the bike lane.

    Please stop.

    you started by saying its then went to and have now fallen to so yes, your writing gets a response. Whether its combative (wasnt meant to be) or dismissive (actual intent) of your baseless accusations.

    Please stop.

    We all know staties rarely get out of their cars. They're not out walking a beat in Seaport or moving homeless people along, forcibly or otherwise. Your belief and facts are far off. But both commenters have their beliefs while admitting they rarely if ever go there, but they know best.

    Have you been avoiding Back Bay your whole life too? Because that's exactly what that neighborhood has been for 100 years or more.

    sorry if I assumed you were part of the vocal group at the last public meeting on the redesign that wanted to start the design process over to fit in bus lanes. they are not incompatible, but if you are adding bus lanes, its going to take it away from the open space width. the # of lanes is...

    please tell the BRT advocates this! BRT on the current 8 lane highway? absolutely! BRT in favor of a linear park along the redesigned Rutherford Ave? Absolutely not! please stop beating that drum. redundant BRT adjacent and parallel to the orange line is not more important than open...

    Reconstruction of State Street Plan

    there were never lane lines painted before so it didnt really operate as 2 lanes in most places. The parking/loading now alternates sides so its a much straighter alignment for vehicles. the only place where capacity is really reduced is at Broad St. hasnt been an issue with less peds (and...
