Actually, it would only really cost the Connecticut drivers who use the Pike to go into 128 or in Town. Most people go 290 thru Worcester to go north or 495 to the south avoiding most tolls. NH people, barely use the Pike. CT residents use the Pike for free to go west into NY, so it is not...

Is it possible to raise the out of state ez pass to help pay for it? NH is doubling their's

Canada clearly will pay it's own people and we won't, so we outsource it and get crap results like in the winter of 2014-15 when ambulances couldn't get people in and out of the major hospitals for weeks

A bit of local history has made the thread more interesting while we are all waiting for the big showdown between the City Council and the Mayor regarding her decision. Expect the reporting to rarely mention how much money it would save the city, focusing more on the drama and the rivalries

That is amazing. On that topic, it was mentioned before that about a quarter of the houses on Francis Street in Mission Hill were moved there to make room for Brigham's new cardiac building, but another recent favorite building move of mine is the church for Lesley's Lunder Arts Center in...

JP Historical Society has a bunch but you have to dig

Just saying this is a plan that the NRG actually got funding for back in 2021 and Dorchester deserves it's library

Yes it has always been part of the Neponset River Greenway which is a community driven initiative, and the "small" library is in across from a Red Line Station in a neighborhood with a population density of over 20,000 per sq mile. There are no corrupt NIMBY bad guys here ruining things

Oh, cut it out. This is an extension of the Neponset River Greenway. First the "community " doesn't deserve a library in Fields Corner and now it is being accused of suddenly foot dragging on a project solely of their own creation. You have to wonder why

Assuming the city were to sell it off, I don't think a developer could buy this and expect to see demand for units in the price range necessary to make it worthwhile; the high end has flattened out.

Do they print anything but borderline click bait articles anymore? The Globe knows quite well that the development team failed to start construction during the lab boom so giving them more time will do nothing. There are many interesting stories here but this isn't it. You shouldn't just...

The POMO station was a big deal back when that neighborhood struggled, it filled a yawning hole in the streetscape that isn't noticeable now.

The "new" Back Bay Station design was influenced by the one that burned in 1928

It's not too bad because it's replacing the surface parking of the building next door. But yes, Southie freaks out about parking

I do remember funny ones. I struggle when people lack self awareness

So, is Phantom Gourmet actually doing this because the Facebook announcement sounded absolutely nuts, like AI making fun of North Shore Kiss 108 people. I mean I don't doubt it but Kowloon in the Fenway? Jim Sokolove and Ernie Boch Jr as bartenders?

I was big into Kenny Rogers back then until my aunt gave me Sabbath Bloody Sabbath on 8 track. Still my favorite album

This is actually a modern problem. You wouldn't be so casual way back when before the internet because you might get to the registry to renew your license and stand in line for literally 3 hours on Nashua Street only to find that you missed paying a ticket so then need to go to City Hall to...

I did. The Bay City Rollers were a Scottish boy band from the 70's that my (now middle aged) sister was completely obsessed with

Me too. The controversy was always about East Milton and now that isn't an issue. But now Boston that needs to come up with a similar development plan for the area because there are far more large developable lots on the other side of the river right near the same trolley stations.
