Happy Halloween! Me and my sister 30 years ago (1995). You know it's in Southie because there's a Stephen Lynch sign just visible behind my head.

A brief look at a scenario in Dallas playing out between the Mavericks and the Stars who currently share an arena, with a nod that this situation could be what is to come with the Celtics and Bruins...

Externally its a bit of a dud but the interior is amazing. It's like Brutalism in timber. This shot especially gives that vibe.

A walk from Cambridge to Great Barrington: https://pudding.cool/2025/10/walk/

It's maybe a touch too small for this, but a part of me thinks that would be a great location for a theoretical Celtics-exclusive arena.

That kei fire truck is a winner

In more ways than one. Was talking to someone who works in the building a few weeks back, and they mentioned that the exhaust for the restaurant is immediately adjacent to the intake for the office HVAC so the place smells like tacos all the time.

Got nostalgic tonight for one of my favorite PoMo spaces that isn't in Boston - Harborplace in Baltimore. It's on the early side of things so it's less ornate, but the openness and color are there. It's sort of their version of Faneuil Hall, but it's right on the water's edge and it has the...

I've been wanting to have a discussion about the exam schools for a while, so here's an opportunity: Boston proposes modifying exam school admissions with seats for top citywide students I get frustrated with these sorts of discussions focused on admissions because that's only half of the...

Cool stuff from The Boston Cup on the Common this morning. The Autozam AZ-1 won best in show!

As the "Proposed But Never Built" thread has seen some action recently, this post from Suffolk 83 in 2008 jumped out at me going back to the beginning. That post can vote now, and amazingly the tower is built, and looks great. I'm very impressed with the garden space, I didn't know that was...

I remember watching that Skyscraper series on WGBH back in the day. I was only 5 so much of it went over my head but I was still fascinated by it. I don't have Prime but maybe there's a DVD set somewhere out there. Gorgeous building. I really like that first render for Columbus Circle with the...

Castle Island on Sunday

To that end, I looked up the listing for one of the units to see what it was going for and how it compared to what we've been looking at locally in Grafton/Westborough/Shrewsbury, since each unit is roughly comparable in size and parking to what we want. $3.2 Million! Which is about triple what...

Some of the new stuff today. L and East Broadway... Emerson St. H and East Broadway. This thing is incredible. Having been used to this being a parking lot and Store 24, it completely changes the feel of the area.
