I think it opened Sunday. It was busy last night and seems to be off to a good start, and with a LIQUOR LICENSE

I went by on a jog last night and from what you can see on the inside everything is done on the interior, even the monitors are on with ads. Probably an opening before Thanksgiving

https://www.bldup.com/projects/1198-north-shore-road pretty sizeable TOD. This might deserve its own thread

Out of curiosity- the opening must be coming up. On another note, why did the gates end up being only four over that huge addition? Is it just a tight space next to e11 and e12? Or are these four gates specifically designated for wide body/ the largest jets?

This will have a demand for ridership. The area around it is open to TOD. It's an area that's less car-centric. This is well connected to other highly trafficked areas. And I could even see people visiting Porter for leisure. I think Porter could grow from this. Also, this provides a great...

That wouldn't be a bad length of a commute for Needham residents. I wonder if there's more support or nimby from them at the moment? I wonder if there's a demand for light rail connecting Newton and Needham? Or is it more car-centric and seen as promoting multi-unit developments. The Needham...

This might belong in crazy. But is the red line test track a viable right of way to be used for anything? A short link between Seaport and Andrew Square? In the long term there could be some type of cut n cover connection with a futuristic GLX extension that existed in the current SL tunnel. For...

I am riding the D line to my office now, with my commute from Eastie to Newton being severed by the Sumner closure, and boy am I impressed by the speed of the D branch. I think I fully see how much inspiration to build a GLX there was from the D branch being a functioning light rail in Boston...

Amongst its existing neighboring buildings in its block it's sticking out in height, however from a distance it doesn't really modify the cityscape with MacAllen and Cambria right there. And by sticking out, I mean that in a positive light. I hope this is a great catalyst for the remaining tight...

The triangular parcel there's building is abandoned iirc, and that's a great parcel to ideate a perfect building for the "what's left to build on thread".

The design and architecture for this block for sure. The buildings in this hot spot are surely changing quickly though

Wow, this is going to stick out like a sore thumb but I am glad the area around the Broadway T at Broadway and A is building more dense, as it is transit oriented and there are taller mid-rises across Widett Circle at Ink Block, there are more mid-rises coming on Old Colony and Dot Ave...

It seems in the climate of height-averse NIMBYism, lab buildings continue to prevail in getting as much height for their zone as possible and it never being a problem. Case in point in Gingko's new building(s) and others near ISQ, Southie labs that are 4-5 stories amongst a sea of 4 over 1...

Great news for those from the North Shore and with the Sumner tunnel closing soon... https://www.wbur.org/news/2023/06/05/lynn-boston-ferry-sumner-tunnel-closure-newsletter

BA A380 landing over M St. Beach yesterday

A summer pilot to spur tourism to Boston from SPG wouldn't be bad, like the CapeFlyer, and the distance and fleet is the same. I wonder if ridership would be over 100? For Friday/Sat/Sunday service

As of right now, is it impossible with the tracks and schedules to run a once a day round-trip trial commuter rail train from SPG to BOS? With the proper adjustments and projects is it feasible? Just an MBCR train, nothing more.

From 99 High St

The next suburban brewery with a Boston location has arrived! 13K SF too, wow!

If we can build this without issue here, I think we can go above 8 storied at Revere Beach
