That is a pity to loose the nice brick work. There was a discussion to salvage but according to an article in the Telegram & Gazette... Mr. Donahue said the interior of the building was replete with the odor of cutting oil and other volatile organic compounds that had permeated the floors and...

I like the round house turntable in the loading dock, very unique.

I have to say this is great reporting on the Council's review of the Village Center Zoning. There were a couple of folks voted off the Council a couple of weeks ago but they continue to fight to maintain what they have gained beyond MBTA mandatory requirements. Its shows a passion to get Newton...

Skip South Station all together. Acela should just run on its own tracks under Boston with one more stop at North Station under the GSA building and on to the Downeasta' tracks to ME.

This looks like the back side of the development along the parking area and minuteman trail. According of the renderings the front entry area court has mixed materials on the façade and some of the renovated brick mill building will make it more inviting from the Mass Ave. side. We shall see.

Here is another angle. The green space on top of the bus station. That guy looking out the window is contenplating "do I go to the compition even though I signed a NDA and non-compete and risk getting sued or do I just continue taking shit from my boss?"

Jeez, just another thihg NYC has to be better at than Boston. We build the Green Line ext at 600,000,000 per mile and they have to up the ante to 4.3 billion per mile of track.

The heavy storage construction method before concrete waffle slabs. The Park Street station ceiling has similar vaulting to hold up he soil and traffic above it.

I got to check out Raffles last night thru a friend in the travel industry. Nice finishes through out. Lots of ceramic tile floors, not porcelain, plush carpets and high end wall coverings (not vinyl). I believe real wood veneer on all paneling as well! There is plenty of staff available. Two...

I was intrigued by the question regarding Church Park and the demolition of the theater. My first apartment was at Mass and Ave and Columbus so the plaza was my outdoor space. I enjoyed it very much and knew it was part of an I.M. Pei master plan but never thought of the history of what was torn...

I'm liking it beter than the tan and brown suburban clapboard look that have been springing up around the site. The facade could use more breaking up. Hopefully they can rework the materials a bit and end up with a less ominous wall of metal along the length of the building. Something like...

It seems the MBTA has been on the fiscal cliff since the year 2000. I think the debt is a shell game and hopefully Tibbetts-Nutt has political savvy to wade these waters; otherwise she will be a sacrificial lamb next summer/fall.

Cleaning up the punchlist items on the exterior. The corner above the garage entry is getting tidied up. Roofing in the corners.

Time for The Post Office to move over the Gillette site.

All the cranes are gone!? How do they get the remaining panels up? Swing staging?

Do you think Holy Cross or UMass will buy it and honor the Woo sox lease? It would be a great start for a new campus

It doesn't matter, get them built to get a foothold on these wastelands of old industrial lots; get them cleaned up and built on! Then in 30 years when the property has gained value and the buildings are sold off to new developers, the buildings will be remodeled or torn down and rebuilt. This...
