    Rutherford isn’t even the worst here. That honor would belong to Maffa or Cambridge Street.

    One Mystic | 1 Mystic Avenue | Charlestown

    I’ll believe it when I see it.. And bus lanes don’t amount to anything if they’re not enforced.

    One Mystic | 1 Mystic Avenue | Charlestown

    I don’t think this is true. It encourages road rage, which leads to accidents and unsafe behavior. Is there data to suggest having more cars on the road leads to fewer crashes/deaths per capita?

    One Mystic | 1 Mystic Avenue | Charlestown

    To play devil’s advocate, the traffic flow around Sullivan is really, really miserable. I think it could be vastly improved with some common sense re-engineering of the square’s intersections, but I don’t know if that’s being talked about as part of this project. I know as urbanists, we’d all...

    Somernova Campus | Duck Village | Somerville

    Boston to update its zoning code

    If they expect those neighborhoods to be functionally underwater in a few decade, I wonder what they think about the subway lines running through them and how we can be expected to keep our mass transit online.

    Tai Tung Village Expansion | 288 Harrison Avenue | Chinatown

    Are the other Tai Tung buildings all concrete? I guess they're too tall to be plywood on a metal platform.

    General Boston Discussion

    I haven’t seen many pictures of it, and my main ideas as to why are (a) it’s difficult and unsafe to take photos while driving, (b) our more prolific photographers don’t drive I-93 into the city from the north often, or (c) there are actually photos in a thread I don’t check very often. But the...

    Did it ever really only take 8min from Harvard to Park? That’s nuts!

    The Residences at Walk Hill | 289 Walk Hill st | Roslindale

    Eli Lilly IGM | 15 Necco Street | Fort Point

    Forget whether anyone (maybe me) has made this comparison yet, but this reminds me a lot of the BASF building in Berlin. https://live.staticflickr.com/3589/3668540192_1015227aa9_b.jpg I mean this as a compliment!

    Fenway Corners (Red Sox) | 1 Jersey Street | Fenway

    the pru been looming over fenway since the 60s tho.. If a green wall is really what people need, paint the new building on Landsdowne the special “green monster” shade of green and be done with it.
