    Biking in Boston

    Agreed, they appear easy to miss (compared to something bright yellow), and they are low to the ground, but high enough that if you hit one at decent speed on a bike you are likely going over the handlebars. Seems like the worst of all worlds here.

    Seaport Neighborhood - Infill and Discussion

    I agree. I've made several trips to the Seaport recently to get coffee at the new Little Wolf location, and the density of the plantings is really excellent. Probably my favorite green space in the seaport!
