There must be 1 employee at all these development firms that comes up with a unique name for each of these complex so that they can have their own .com domain for leasing. Just sitting there thinking of names like Juniper or The Jackrabbit or pulling random old-sounding surnames like Whittaker...

When is the new Hynes tunnel opening?

The green paneling is giving 'high school built in the 60s'

Not to jump the gun at all but I am an author actually! My book is coming out this summer — it’s fiction but features urban renewal heavily in the plot. Partially inspired by things I’ve learned on this forum. Would be happy to help get people copies if people agreed to read it. But it’s still a...

The drawings are wonderful. But it's always summer in the world of architecture! Imagine the bleakness in that park in January! We of course should fill in the channel halfway and put some buildings there.

Your latest punch list update. The benches at the lechmere busway were for some reason cantilevered (!) off the bus stop wall. After a few months to a year the screws gave out and the bench was sagging. Someone has finally gone in and given the benches some wooden posts.

Slightly more vertical angle for you guys

Anecdotal, but my friend is moving out of his place in Eastie and his landlord who originally wanted 200 more per month in rent (!) is now offering him 200 less to stay. He said no, and is also doing his part by talking a big game to the people viewing the apartment about how he 'hates living...

I'm not saying she's good at her job, but it's odd to write a newspaper article about it

Mr President the people are crying out for a light rail reservation!

Tack on West Station there. I agree GL to Nubian is necessary, but I don't think we'll get it. I also never hear any buzz about BLX to lynn either.

This came up a year ago. A lot of commenters here are of the opinion that those routes can/should not be rerouted.

Apologies if this has been posted already and I don't have a photo, but I got to use the new bike lanes on Memorial Drive around the BU bridge. They are awesome! I wish I had them when I was regularly using that stretch of road. It is too bad someone had to give their life to build them.

Work with a developer to use 1/2 the footprint to build apartments, 1/2 for a surface boulevard? Then we can get it for free.

The prices there were a little ridiculous. What's more ridiculuos is that the building itself is low rise commercial instead of a tower. Total bonehead move.

A lot of it is going to amenities. Apparently three bars are being installed or have been installed. That’s what I’ve been hearing.

Center of this image is the building I mistook for the site. This building is going to be on the adjacent parking lot. What is interesting is the brownstones in the background actually match the one in the foreground. And they have party walls. Theres a mysterious gap between them, where the...
