Rents are at least $1,415/month in the new apartment building near the train station and that's for a bottom-of-the-line studio. Other buildings nearby are at least $1,100/month. With the rent not much lower than in Boston, I can't imagine Worcester is a terribly competitive place to live for...

No.

Well why the fuck are we tolerating this? This is a forum on development, not a place to spew alt-right intolerance. So anyone whose purpose here is to espouse those views should be shown the door like Rifleman.

So why is this "pc" again?

Re: Dock Square Parking Garage | 20 Clinton Street | Oh, it's just BCDC, so maybe doesn't mean anything, we'll see.

What exactly is pc about this? Get your hateful white nationalist bullshit out of here. Not sure why we let racist political trolls run rampant on a development discussion forum.

Critique the policies, don't make ad hominem attacks. The fuck. Please back your preceding remarks with evidence: "child legislator": "intellectual sophistication of a 12 year old": "deeply ignorant": "narcissistic": I am patiently awaiting your intellectual response. Thank you.

One of the most impressive massings I've seen. Many varied forms on a very hilly plot and a quality park that connects to surroundings. I'm sure the materials won't be stunning but I'm sold based on the massing alone. And it's not like there's any obvious roads that can be put in this hilly...

Honestly I would've guessed courthouse.

wtf

I think DC can be categorized as 4B (maybe even 4A). Tysons is starting to look pretty impressive with the new Capital One tower and some nice residential highrises. It is a bit suburban/spread out still but the new buildings are actually quite nice. Rosslyn, Arlington just opened a new...

Essentially nowhere with lots of pedestrians walking around. I lived in Worcester for 2 years and street life is 100% dead in winter months except hardcore druggies and/or prostitutes. In the summer, there are slightly more people walking around, but they are still frequently druggies that get...

The church plot is a separate but related development. It'll be developed in the same aggressively bland style. I mean I'm very glad Worcester is developing some modern, urban, higher-end housing for basically the first time since the city's initial growth. That said, it is extremely late in...

"Incredible"? It's about as banal as it gets, except for the park (which is supposed to be developed soon). I mean, I'm glad Worcester is finally getting its first apartment complex of this style, but most cities already have dozens, and with more street life. This is a good start but...

For what you're getting for the price, dorm rates are a huge ripoff compared to even high Boston rents. Luckily most (or at least a substantial portion) are paid by parents that are all-too-happy-to so I guess it doesn't really matter. If you are paying your own way, getting reasonably...

Lol what do you think bruh? The ground level might end up OK so I can't disapprove of the project as a whole. Still, it's definitely going to make some "ugliest of Boston" lists over the next few decades.

Lol the massing of nearly all newer DC buildings are big blocky turds. Some of the facades are OK but most aren't great with street-level retail and vibrancy. It's much more noticeable in DC when whole neighborhoods like the Navy Yard and NoMA get developed with this type of building and...

So they're going to build some banal turd that can be found in Washington DC. Lol. Terrible.

I mean increase density and you increase demand for retail. Unfortunately these newer buildings are probably charging much higher commercial rents so there will be a "transition" (or long-term empty retail, like in many parts of NYC).
