    Re: Ink Block | Boston Herald Property Redevelopment That was a pretty good read, thanks for linking. I thought it was interesting that Marcel Breuer had a proposal for the site at one point.

    Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion I'm a little disappointed that 1/3 to 1/2 of the Columbus Avenue facade seems to be for the garage or service area. From Berkeley Street

    Rose Kennedy Greenway

    So the image portrays a terrorists because the subject has some sort of cloth wrapped around his head. So, I guess you can also justify the recent shooting in the Sikh temple? They have cloth wrapped around their heads, why they must have been terrorists, too.

    The New Retail Thread

    I'd rather see the BPL space used for Adult and Kids Education classes like BCE offers. They should be using the new building for programs that educate the public. Or maybe offer some of the programs and activities that small business incubators offer, I'd have to think about it more. I dont see...

    The New Retail Thread

    I guess this belongs in here: Boston Business Journal: New chapter for Boston Public Library: Retail? "The first few floors of the Boston Public Library’s Copley Square branch could be transformed into a boutique shopping center, according to a source familiar with the proposal. A plan...

    110 Arlington Street - Boutique Hotel | Bay Village

    Re: 110 Arlington Street - boutique hotel I thought they were going to add floors, too, but the article states they were going to replace the building. Maybe it was just a poor choice of words. From the article: ..."project that would have replaced the derelict three-story property at 110...

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport I dont think the Seaport complaints are about it not being "architecturally stunning". That's such an ignorant thing to say, as if architects and planners only care about making award-winning projects. This is about poor planning.

    Liberty Mutual Tower | 157 Berkeley Street | Back Bay

    Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion The agreement between the BRA and Liberty Mutual was that L/M would put a small public park in on Stuart Street in the space that's currently a parking lot. There's also going to be a public cafe inside the Berkeley Street entrance. I don't see...
