I was gonna make a similar point about bringing a friend or two and take turns who sleeps...... This hotel/building creates questions.

You pics are wonderful - - but THAT building will never “makes sense”.

Ah, that makes sense.👍

Perhaps you didn't READ the article, because you have it 100% backwards. "........Many office buildings are now vacant, and their owners are asking Waltham for tax abatements. This year, the city raised its residential tax rate by 5 percent to account for lost revenue." Seriously, you could...

That's some sobering news.......:(

"......Hanley added that while he has no guess how much the market-rate units will go far, they will not be marketed, or priced, as the sort of luxury units that have gone up in large numbers over in the Seaport a few blocks away. "There's a lot of luxury housing" in the area, but not a lot of...

Figure of speech humor, Chris, like the oceanfront real estate in Iowa. The point was ‘anything looks good with an open air market on it’. Just look at that Cisco Brewers Seaport. An open air market is the best pig lipstick there is. But seriously, the Design-By-Committee Copley Square Plaza...

The Haverhill Star Market parking lot looks like paradise when you put a farmers market on it. How does it look the other 95% of the time?

Well said - thank you!(y)

Hey, Jeremi is back!!!!!! :ROFLMAO: You may be right, but it helps the conversation if you could explain WHY you think it's a turd.

Probably the same way Banh Me does in Dorchester or Greek food in Allston, or the Legal Seafoods in Chicago. Urban residents and tourists will seek it out for the food diversity. And IF it’s good, has an affordable lease and an efficient business plan, it will be even more popular than just...

Per that “construction value of $5.48 million” for 62 residential units that works out to less than $90k/apartment. Is this going to be made of matchsticks and styrofoam? The render sure does look Siberian.

I wasn’t cvommenting on the lack of people in the pics. I was astonished at how very chaotic and disorganized the schematic is for this long-awaited square. ***And can someone please look at the final photo in Missinglink’s post #375 - - just to the left of the hand railing - the second block...

Jeebus. Those pictures don’t lie. .

……also the move to underground vs. above ground parking. At least it’s going in the right direction. I liked Leerink’s more urban/ambitious plan better too.

Honestly, if the BPD has problems with the later closings, it’s time to mechanize - it’s 2026, we longer have toll takers, tellers, gas station pump attendants, etc. This solves much (not all, of course) of the late night ride-along worries of the good folks at the Boston Patrolmen’s...

Mayor Wu: Lemme save you some rumination time, the need to establish committees to study the subject, the taxpayer expense to create algorithms and citizen feedback meetings: The answer is Yes. Now get on with it. (Post edit: Looks like Wu is on board - - it’s the Boston Police Union...

Not to be Oscar from The Office :D , but the celebration Scott was referring to was in June 1981, when the Celtics beat Moses Malone and the Houston Rockets after a series where, at the outset, Malone claimed he and 4 guys from his hometown could take the Celtics.

Still can’t believe Cambridge decided to build such a land scraper office park in such a great potential urban location. Just look at this one - 5 story, 200,000 squat behemoth. What a lost opportunity to stretch the urbanity out from Kendal Square and North Station. The comparison of...

What a great FREAKING shot!!!!! That is a view.
