Wow. That honestly looks great.

That's honestly kind of a nice Scandinavian vibe in the first pic with Twenty20 and this. Definitely some visually intriguing architecture, if not beautiful.

Re: What's Happening With Project X? Well it's mainly because conservatives exhibit more snowflake behavior than the liberals they accuse of exhibiting it. It's pretty funny. This guy cussed me out with all kinds of irrelevant political insults, then deleted his post within hours and can't...

Well coliving is a good market solution and I would like living in one but they’re still not affordable for the poor. Allston with roommates is still going to be the cheapest bet. Honestly as long as regional affordability (in places like you know, Worcester) isn’t terrible it’s not quite as bad...

They really need mandatory zoning minimums for the urban core and a big public housing effort especially at transit hubs. But the powers that be are happy with Boston as it is so this is obviously not going to happen. Not considering affordability, I think Boston looks great these days, and...

It does seem big, but I love all the historical new builds of New England, most places don’t get nearly as much. More variety to look at than in DC new construction for example. This one is admittedly mediocre but I don’t thank most people will mind, fits in reasonably well. What is better...

Re: What's Happening With Project X? Snowflake couldn’t stand the heat I guess..

Re: What's Happening With Project X? Not with idiots and/or fascists, no. Didn't you literally just say in the same post you are pro-free speech? So yes, I reserve my right to call trash trash.

Re: What's Happening With Project X? I'd prefer a ban personally. He was expressing white supremacist sentiment in the MLK memorial thread anyway.

I would have guessed "botique medical office" in Woburn or Burlington. Probably some dentists, an orthodontist, and others lol.

More PoMo than historicist. The only thing remotely classical about it is the partially brick facade and the cornice. Looks like some standard 80s or 90s "traditional" suburban crap.

Very substantial! This area is becoming on par with the best of contemporary Brooklyn.

Morris Adjmi? Awesome.

The before/after in this location is more dramatic than almost anywhere else in the city, because it is an ugly busy intersection over the Pike. Even a mediocre project would be great here. But they massively improved it from that.

Samuels has to be one of the greatest contributors to Boston's urbanism in our time. Continuum, all the Fenway projects, Dot Block, and now this? Fucking awesome.

Boston just became big-league. Truly world-class contemporary urbanism.

Yes, compared to suburban apartment complexes along Route 9 it's on par. I guess it makes sense, the Route 9 complexes are the top end of the regional rental market, and 145 Front wants to join them. We'll see, but I think it has to be based on regional economic development as opposed to...

I agree, average rents are very competitive for the region and that’s why many people brave the long commute. Most people use the pike though. The Grid is competitively priced and that’s why it’s getting filled. I have the feeling 145 Front is filling up slower than they’d like but I have no stats.

I’m finding a good amount of studios available for around 1500, and the commute will be closer to 30 minutes than 2 hours. This includes newer buildings in places like Chelsea.

https://www.apartments.com/145-front-at-city-square-worcester-ma/g28ng1w/ Very aspirational pricing for Worcester. I would be surprised to see this filled with Boston commuters. More likely rich students (international and otherwise) will live there if anything. Otherwise I can't see the...
