I think it will only get worse, I do not think this architecture will age well at all. At least it will eventually be underwater if we don't build a seawall, that could provide the grit we were talking about in the other thread.

Re: Landmark Center Expansion | Fenway This looks better than most of the taller buildings going up in boston. I also think the fetish on height is bizarre. I would much rather have better activated and more walkable streets and more consistent density than I would have one or two giant buildings.

Re: Seaport Parcels M1-M2 | Seaport Sq. | Seaport However they left no space for it here. The massive tracts being developed as single buildings (or groups buildings connected by pedestals) with wide canyon like streets and massive retail means that the type of things that can bring that...

Re: Seaport Parcels M1-M2 | Seaport Sq. | Seaport I agree with Cadet Carl. I avoid this area like the plague and all of my friends who also grew up in Boston do too. Basically the only reason I go over there is for the occasional concert at the pavilion or for the ICA. There isn't much to offer...

Re: Assembly Row (Assembly Sq Redevelopment) | Assembly Square | Somerville *1 produces no continued CO2 *2 produces over a million and a half tons of CO2 a year When there is already far too much carbon in the atmosphere tell em more about the future in your eyes.

Re: MIT.nano But this assumes that the problem is the response to climate denial and not the original climate denial.

Re: MIT.nano Why do you say "Noooooooo!" when someone stands up for the actual science and for the planet and not when the person originally did the opposite?

Re: MIT.nano Except that the idea isn't to use fewer fossil fuels it is to use no fossil fuels. We cannot just pollute less, we need to stop polluting and use organic farming and other techniques that suck up pollution.

I read a defense of the poor door that if you changed a couple of words could be sent back 60 years to be a defense of separate but equal. They better not include a poor door.

Re: One Canal (formerly Greenway Center, Bullfinch Triangle) This is extremely orientalist and generally racist. The biggest reason why these cities are failing as well is because of American imperialism either either economic or militaristic. This building is pretty ugly but to compare it to...

I didn't pay attention to who the poster was. I am sorry everyone. Wigh, again the baltic is a terrible comparison as they are using a radically different method. Current capacity is also a terrible way to measure green energy efficiency as the government disproportionately invests in fossil...

That post was mostly about the building and I think that the reality of climate change is very relevant to a defense of the windmills on top of it.

Jesus that triple post. But I honestly do not know how you can try to claim science on your side when you deny anthropogenic climate change. The example you site is a problem with a completely different type of windmill. I would rather have the small amount of noise over 200 feet and renewable...

Whigh, you are actually totally wrong the type that is going on this building is specifically designed to work at a huge variety of speeds and from all directions. Your propaganda is as incorrect as it is misguided.

What do you mean by this?

Saw it in person today. Awesome, we need more public art.

Idk if this is the best place to put this but I saw this group at wake up the earth today. http://arborway.org/#sthash.ui22jlzJ.dpbs. some of the plan:http://arborway.org/documents/ArbComm_HS_WhitePaper.pdf The plan seems to be to restore service slowly starting by bringing it to hyde square...

Taken from a few pages back.

Re: 111 Federal St. | Formerly Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 That is gorgeous.

I think its strange that people are proposing pedestrian bridges as a counter to these when these are basically a pedestrian bridge.
