'they' are 2 different entities though. Skanska had bought the 2 sites of 101 and 121 from BGI and initially constructed the plaza. WS then bought all of the remaining sites of Seaport Square, changed the vision to include the pedestrian Harbor Way and are now reconstructing this portion to...

this shot, is why they used support from underneath instead of cable stayed/suspension that would have needed something tall. they didnt want this bridge competing with the Zakim. I would say that is the right design decision

thanks for posting this. expected completion was fall of 2023 before this delay.

BHCC land is only north of bridge. parking lots are owned by the BPDA. and yes, they will be looking to redevelop as well. its been mentioned during PLAN Charlestown.

The garage is still open and will remain open.

You have to remember when this was designed/permitted. Good chance it was before protected bike lanes were being done in the city.

am I missing something? why the post from an old announcement on work that is already done?

south of Sullivan, whats the point of option 6? bus service parallel to the orange line? no thanks option 3 with the Sullivan to Kendall route of option 5 (or 7).

agree to disagree then. political will can get a lot done.

Im not saying it was or wasnt a good idea (thats a discussion for another forum or thread). The points is, we wouldnt have had the Olympics 'with this public transit'

Why, because its center running? Now, a person with disabilities (or anyone for that matter) has to cross the entire road once (inbound or outbound). With the proposed the crossing is just half way twice. 1 lane of general traffic each time or 4 lanes at once. I'd say that's an improvement...

Are people really unaware that was the whole point of the Olympic bid?!!! Force infrastructure improvements via a defined deadline that would then be used for regional growth.

no, they are not

Morrissey redesign is part of a much larger ongoing MassDOT/DCR/BTD redesign.

not a pic, just street view. I always try to line myself up with the loop detectors (which are 4 lanes) but how many people even know that loop detectors exist, much less realize they are there. and yes, left 'lane' should definitely be left turn only because the curb on the other side of the...

not for a kid and nothing to do with the temporary bridge 'costing a life'.

this one is my 'favorite' https://www.google.com/maps/@42.3866297,-71.077233,3a,75y,338.55h,89.83t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sXGJOD7hK4KFV6q4qOMk9Ag!2e0!5s20220301T000000!7i16384!8i8192 that must be during commuter times because most seem to get it, not the case in off hours. Ive seen it turn into 2...

Isn't that what this project is doing by getting rid of the garage?

Ive never understood this, is the building itself considered historic or the activities that happened there? the buidling itself now is doing nothing except blocking the view (and giving off a lovely odor as you walk by). Not sure why the renders keep the ugly concrete wall. I understand they...
