Why in the world are there still all these damn plans for shutdowns for frigging trackwork, seemingly across the board again, even when all this this work was supposed to have been done eons before, especially almost 2 years ago when the entire Orange Line was shut down for trackwork in the...

And then it probably starts all over again. At least they can't put up any more buildings, because supposedly, all of the land is used up for new real estate. But we'll see. :unsure:

Even though everyone appreciates new things, I think that it's high time that this seemingly endless ongoing construction come to an end, at lease for a while. :(

Things can get changed around in practically a hartbeat. :eek:

Let's also have 7 WTC join the party as one more shiny biulding that glistens in the sun. :)

Well, when I'm heading inbound on 90, the view looks quite different now. This new complex changes the view quite drastically, and it looks good!! In this rendering, you can see the Pru Tower. :)

That bridge in the top pic is well over 100 years old!!! Should've been replaced eons ago!!! :eek::eek:

Part of a tree fell this morning & is lying across Washington Street, snarling traffic in that area. Vehicles are forced to detour through the Whole Foods parking lot to continue to & from Comm.

Awe, Jesus!!! More damn hurdles to get over!!! This seems to be taking forever! Forget the NIMBY'S. They're not paying for it. Who cares if it's too much noise for them?!! I don't!!! :mad:

Can I ask a stupid question? Why on earth can't this work on the tracks be done all at once, instead of having to shut down the lines multiple times?!! Seems so blasted annoying to have to go through all this hokey-pokey just to get a line finished once & for all!!! :(

On the older Hancock building, is the John Hancock signature on both sides or just one? :unsure:

So, does anyone know when construction will start, now that things are approved? I'm anxiously waiting to see something!! :)

Thanks. :)

Is or will the new Type 10 trolleys be regarded as trams? I've seen pics of some of the look-alikes being designated as such. Just wondering. But it WOULD be sort of a new name for the vehicles when they come on the scene. :)

My car (Green Gerbil) in the foreground with the CVS sign on the Brookliner in the background. :)

Yeah, a report came out from the officials saying that the original plan is too expensive. :eek:

When a sign is put up announcing the rebuild, then & only then will it be convincing. Hah!!! :)

Why am I not surprised?!!!! (n)

The boulders add a nice touch to the small park!!!! :)
