    The Boulevard (née The Times/Littlest Bar) | 110 Broad St | Downtown

    Wasn't there a similar building proposed for the parking lot next to this?

    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    I am not sure about their strategy. I think the largest unserved Western European tourist destination from Boston is Vienna.

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport I'd add another 934 from 467 units at Park Lane.

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport A lot of stuff is going on. And 2 more groundbreakings should happen before the end of the year: Seaport Sq parcel L4 for Amazon and Fan Pier parcel E for Mass Mutual.

    🔹 What's Happening With Project X?

    Since this is an all spec development I'm guessing it took a backseat to L4 which Amazon signed.

    Kenmore Square North (WHOOP) | 533-541 Commonwealth Ave | Fenway

    I like 2 and C. But much better to keep the commonwealth facade, remove citgo sign and build a tower with a setback...

    Longfellow Bridge update

    I would assume they made sidewalk wider on the side where they reduced traffic lanes to 1 from 2, no?

    Actually, July 1st. But even that is hard to believe, unless they are only opening up some portion of it...

    Kenmore Square North (WHOOP) | 533-541 Commonwealth Ave | Fenway

    This needs something similar to Atlantic (aka Russia) Wharf approach - gut and renovate City Convenience building and add a setback tower on top. Ideally it would be residential tower, but whatever works.

    Logan Airport Capital Projects

    It is already often hard to find a parking spot in Central, B garage or E lots. If first hour is free and more people try to park there - it would be nearly impossible. 7$ curbside fee might be enough to push some people to think twice about doing it but would be a pretty hard sell politically -...

    Yeah, that's a good point. I was assuming that SL1 is just a standard MBTA service, but since Massport is paying for it (as I learned here) they have every incentive to try to stop paying for it when APM is up and running. Then South Station to terminals becomes 2 hops - South Station to Airport...

    This makes sense for daily commuters for work, who can (to a degree) make a decision about where to work. It also makes sense for tourists who can make a decision on what to visit and where to stay. This does not make sense for the only large and international airport in New England that...

    While I like this idea in principle - I suspect it's difficult to implement currently: 1. You'll need a pretty large parking lot to accommodate pickups - much larger than current cell phone lot (which by the way fills up regularly). And space in Logan is at a premium. 2. Introducing terminal...

    I thought a little more about Massport and MBTA relationship and have a question. Apparently, Masssport pays State police for services. I am assuming they are paying for overtime services only, but maybe paying base as well - don't know. Question - does Massport pay MBTA for all the free rides...

    I do not disagree that 1bn dollars can be put to better use than APM - we can pay for free higher education for a lot of kids for example(this hits close to home for me :). I do disagree however that there's a better Logan airport transit related project than this. As for questions about making...

    Logan Airport Capital Projects

    I don't see it that way. Currently, during peak times SL1 gets stuck behind all the cars trying to get to the terminals. It can take 30 mins to traverse terminals on SL1 during peak times. I got seriously stuck on it more than once and promised myself to only take it when traffic is light. When...

    Dock Square Parking Garage | 20 Clinton Street | Downtown

    Re: Dock Square Parking Garage, 20 Clinton Street Talking about underutilized space in the urban core - there's a large parking lot with footprint comparable to this garage right across the Greenway. Is there any chance of development there?
