    BCEC expansion | Seaport

    Few points: 1. People who are surprised that Hynes is not doing very well are forgetting that both Hynes and BCEC are owned by the same MCCA. They can move costs and push events around to show whatever they want to show. I'm pretty sure if MCAA wanted to show that Hynes is profitable and BCEC is...

    Porter Square Infill and Small Developments

    Totally agree. While it's great that church next to this was preserved and it fits nicely with the streetwall and Lesley building leaving this house creates just way too much uncertain space around...

    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    As far as international flights - looking back at old Massport's Route Development plan http://www.maroundtable.com/aroundTable/1206/RouteDevPlan_GovPatrick.pdf it's pretty amazing how successful they were. The only target still unfulfilled is Delhi/Mumbai and from the list of largest Boston...

    Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial | Boston Common | Downtown

    I actually like this and think it will add nicely to the Common. Especially if it goes between Parkman Bandstand and Tremont. That area can use an upgrade.

    Congestion toll in Boston?

    I drive on I-93 almost every day and I agree that we need to add tolls to it if anything for fairness to I-90 drivers. However, adding tolls to federal interstate highway is not easy as it requires a permission from FHA, which will likely only allow it for a highway work project this tolls will...

    One Kenmore Square | 560 Commonwealth Avenue | Kenmore Square

    Re: Crossroads at Kenmore | 560 Commonwealth Ave | Kenmore Square Very impressed with the tower. As far as intersection goes - I understand it's a car centered society, but in the city changes to streetscape need to be primarily evaluated from pedestrian's pov and I think it's a considerable...
