Harvard left a much, much bigger hole in the ground when it started construction of its new science and engineering building on Western Ave., then stopped it. The excavation was covered IIRC. The building complex was then re-designed, and built when Harvard could again afford it. That they...

Legal consequences? No. Financial consequences? Yes, but only to the developer. If they had a tenant -- which they don't -- then the financial consequences might be greater. The developer will be required to secure the site, and probably drain any standing water.

IIRC, this is a critical substation associated with transmission of electricity, and independent of whether Exelon closes the generating plants in Everett. ------------------- In related news , Eversource has gotten the okay for a $1.5 Billion substation to be buried underground near Binney St.

I'm assuming the red brick sampler is for the residential. I can't think of where else it could be going.

BC's long-term debt as of May 2023 was about $1.5 billion. All, or nearly all, of that debt is associated with capital construction. Long-term debt was 40 percent of the endowment's total value. (though debt and capital facilities are not part of the endowment). That might be enough to give...

Boston College is opening Messina College this fall. Messina is the former campus of Mount Ida, BC having bought Mount Ida several years ago. The campus is off Heath St. in Brookline. (There is also the Mount Ida campus of UMass Amherst, but that is in Newton.)...
