    Fall River/New Bedford Commuter Rail (South Coast Rail)

    I checked out Fort Phoenix last time and enjoyed it, but was on foot in April when I went last. Knowing of the bike path and being able to get over there faster on a bike, you got a deal!

    Dedham Infill and Small Developments

    This is great. On a grander scale, about Dedham, does anyone have insight about how and why Dedham is so underdeveloped for a town so close to Boston? I imagine lots of nimbyism for sure, amongst infrastructure being poorly connected, not a great highway connection, and lots of single family...

    Fall River/New Bedford Commuter Rail (South Coast Rail)

    Took another trip (last one was April on a cold rainy day) from SS to New Bedford for a day trip yesterday (Sunday) and was very pleased with all things about the ride! No slowdown or stops and took about 1 hr 35 down, and about 1 hr 25 up on the way back. Took the 8:20am out and brought bikes...

    General MBTA Topics (Multi Modal, Budget, MassDOT)

    Took some photos at Oak Grove today, and boy, it's really outdated, especially at the commuter rail platform. Not much for a rider experience, at all. I also think the general area is quiet underdeveloped, probably partly because of NIMBYism nearby

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    I'm actually estimating based on what I've read in the past. I'd have to check their plans again for the more accurate number

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    I think about how important more transport to Beachmont especially is -- there will probably be 20K new residents added to just Suffolk Downs alone. Of that number, the commuters into the city should be significant enough to increase BL ridership. I imagine some jobs will be in Suffolk Downs...

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    This and the Chelsea CR hits the 2nd St / Stop and Shop Redevelopment area. The 104 then goes up to Malden Ctr rather than down 16 (old route)

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    I've always envisioned this route of a phase 1 of an elevated light rail (call it the pink line) that ran above route 16 from Beachmont to Wellington. Most of the elevated support poles would be in the median of 16, and some stations or tracks would be on side grass embankments. This would...

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    Stalled state of things where the residential 300' tower os planned. Too bad it's not a temporary beer garden at the moment. That would be a gold mine...

    East Boston Infill and Small Developments

    1 Everett St. Almost topping out. The small windows on the Everett St side seem tasteless. Just my .02

    ISQ3 | 22 Drydock Avenue | Seaport

    Does this have a fire station built in as part of its design?

    Lyra (née The Huntington) | 252/258/264 Huntington Avenue | Fenway

    Last night 7/7. On a side note, is this going to be comparable scale to Avalon North Station?

    SBWTC /South Boston Waterfront Transportation Center | Seaport

    Bumping an old thread, but I was on a walk in Seaport and caught a lot of the new walkways that keep popping up in Seaport, after checking out a few of the new buildings going up. I was quickly perturbed and confused as to what the meaning behind "Transportation Center" in inherent, branding...

    Green Line Reconfiguration

    I think this is the best thread for this. I was walking to Silver Line Way thru the part that's built under the Congress St building, and I realized that almost all caternary is gone, and I hadn't picked up on it. So, battery BRT is here to stay? Also, I can never not see this as a ripe spot...

    Fall River/New Bedford Commuter Rail (South Coast Rail)

    Took my first trip from Boston down the Fall River/New Bedford extension yesterday for a fun daytrip to New Bedford - to explore a city I've never really patronized, despite being a MA resident for the 31 years of my life! I had been on the Middleboro/Lakeville line a few times or so, after...
