Re: Official City Hall Plaza Proposals Add some trees, call it a day.

It certainly is something new for the city.

They read too many Rem Koolhaas monographs.

Something I never thought about, since pot is legal I wonder if we will ever see a marijuana cafe, like thy have in Amsterdam. Seeing how hard it is to get a liquor license and how puritanical some laws still are, probably never.

Re: Alexandra Hotel Renovation | 1769 Washington St | South End I don't mind this.

I don't know the exact number but this would be part of Article 38 zoning district where a certain setback and FAR are dictated. They couldn't take the footprint and build straight up.

It looks like a Star Wars set piece.

I would have liked to have seen some space for rotating murals, like Dewey Square.

Building of Theseus

Come on man, it's the Jawas not Sandpeople!

*Pre VE

I believe that is the "track" that allows the form-work cocoon to rise with the building as the concrete is poured and cured.

If they don't ever put a pedestrian bridge over to Assembly, they are fools.

I'm surprised the Seaport doesn't have a grocery store yet. I would assume that in one of these new buildings there will be one at some point.

That's why a dive bar will never again be in the seaport, sadly.

Re: Six West Broadway Hotel |South Boston I love the proportions on this.

Good thing they bothered to clean up the metal panels before...

If it's in their budget and fits their programmatic needs, they are happy with it.

I believe those concrete pours are just benches, not for flood control. They don't stretch the entire length of the park.

I work right by this park and it bothers me every time I see it, that the play wooden ship's front bow/mast/whatever its called is not centered on the boat, but offset like that. My own little mildly irritating OCD mind acting up.
