    45 Bromfield Street | Downtown Crossing

    One issue I have with the redevelopment is that it reduces the granularity of the blocks. Something is lost when you have a new building taking up all of a block. I would like to see limits on the percentage of a block that can be consolidated into a single building.

    Oh yeah, my nostalgia is for the restaurant. The building nothing special.

    School’s out for summer, so the city is starting a two year project to rebuild the school yard at the Kennedy school.

    Biogen Global HQ | 75 Broadway | Kendall Common (née Volpe parcels) | Kendall Square

    Looks like it is about halfway up the second layer of the stack, based on the renders on page 1. In the background they are excavating the old canal again. Based on the lining, I think it’s yet more remediation.

    South Boston Infill and Small Developments

    I appreciate the inclusion of a packie in the render, instead of a bougie cafe.

    Dorchester Infill and Small Developments

    The PNF doesn’t call out modular in either the construction management section or the waste reduction. I think this is going to be stick built.

    Residential Building | 75 First Street | Cambridge

    After a long dormancy, this one is stirring. They have reset the fences and there is a construction trailer.

    Northeastern University Multipurpose Athletic Facility | 262 St. Botolph Street | Fenway

    I don’t like the rounded corners. I think it feels dated to me.

    MBTA "Transformation" (Green Line, Red Line, & Orange Line Transformation Projects)

    I finally caught one of the upgraded Type 8s. They set the electronics cabinet in place of one of the windowless seats next to the level boarding doors.

    Some of the options involve new AC and/or HVDC lines between Maine and Boston

    New England Electrical Grid

    It doesn’t help that the grid is constrained shipping electricity between Maine and NH. ISO-NE has an RFP out to fix that, but the in service dates for that work is 2032+.

    Does anyone know the percentage of Green Line cars that have been fitted with the GLTPS hardware?

    East Cambridge Infill and Small Developments

    The weird thing is that they have been constructing this continuously. I wasn’t even aware they had a pending revision before the city.

    I have endless respect for the folks who work the high steel. Casually walking out the flange of a girder that’s held up by the crane is not for everyone.
