I don't know how skateboarding didn't become an even bigger sport here - so many brutal beton and modernist clean grind 'rails' everywhere!

i don't know why you wouldn't do an island platform or if you must do side - offset?

Not even a gold-plated toilet in sight.

Other than maybe a tad too heavy on the Millenial gray - the actual physical layout of the space is notably better in the actual use of Copley Square. I think we all have to accept the fact that trying to make a lawn function as a plaza was not working in the previous design. The actual travesty...

that looks like a street that active hates pedestrians - people would need to have an owl's neck to cross at anything unsignalized.

all the untold workers doing overnight hours needing a reliable affordable ride - graveyarders, hospital, hotel, night life, generally any night owls. - folks just need some kind of overnight transportation as a lifeline.

Super busy as well at about 2 p.m. with several long-distance departures and a regional. Sometimes that 6 p.m. push can get a bit too chaotic - thankfully that's more "commuter" types so folks just know to avoid the ticketed area and opt for something (anything) else.

don't need to have uniform fleets to have PSDs - if you go to any Asian country with a legacy railway - they run consists of different door numbers and lengths of trains. It's solvable for even the not very complicated Red Line.

I begrudigingly accept the fact that Gen X and Gen Y learned more about what make parts of cities more comfortable places to be because of all the encouragement to go study abroad - even if that just meant Canada or the UK - we've clearly been learning what is better public space than our...

For such a sleepy town, there's still life and activity at 1 or 2 in the morning all over the subway zone of metro Boston. Those who are out would be greatly benefitted by having safe, public transit over night, even if it's not the subway.

The project page looks to have not been updated in about 1-2 years. I don't think I would trust the information there - it seems like the only trustworthy source of info on anything this mayor is doing is a council hearing (still very bad) or media interview (where somehow policy is made?). The...

You haven't been in yet, you never know....

When I lived in Italy, I found a good number of these round about intersections - but - through an area like Concord it would be a single small overpass bridge carrying a two-lane carriage way (1x1) maybe a three-lane carriage way (2x1). That would seem sufficient, with long enough ramps to deal...

I don't doubt the need for some sustained maintenance, repair, or modernization work. However, shutting down over a holiday weekend or for 3.5 days is a big difference to the weeks long shutdowns that are still going on regularly on the subway in Boston.

Generally needs like more 6-10 story buildings - and terra cotta - as well.

I think the T and the Governor found that the public accepted such long shutdowns as an indication that they could do this more regularly without political blowback. I think everyone's drunk the Eng is king kool-aid and are willing to deal with it until he retires. I'm not sure that we have the...

I hate the proliferation of non-elected boards, even our elected boards, as Plato says tend toward oligarchy. This is "boys club" "democracy" being remade into "upper-middle class interest" "democracy".

Does the driveway from Route 2/16 not exist anymore?

I think you're thinking of the 91 (which runs parallel to the old CT2, new 85) rather than the 83 which does also leave from Central.

some how the 104 and 109 (pretty significant promotions a year ago) are tho!
