No need to get personal. We’re discussing a subject. People who are comfortable with themselves don’t need to ‘own someone on the inetrnet’ if someone has a different opinion. BTW, I am a huge supporter of the NWSL, my daughter loves the USWNT and I fervently hope Boston (which SHOULD be a...

I’m just a poster on a website. Michelle Wu is actually the Mayor responsible for this White Elephant……….you wanna hold her to the same standard you’re holding little ol’ me to??????? Concerning your post, couldn’t that be rephrased tho “Last time Mayor Wu said she would have the updated cost...

Slowly? Despite the Mayor’s declaration last spring, I guess we’ll see the next delayed installment of “slowly” next year. And, I’m sorry, I root for Greater Boston’s economy. The legacy will be taking on a very large debt for a new corporation and try to compete in the fast growing NWSL in...

https://www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/10/metro/white-stadium-cost-estimate-delayed/#comment-209199674 This thread fascinates me - - I can’t help but watch over the next 2- 5 years as slowly the proponents here start realizing what is patently obvious to many others. Wu’s White Stadium is a...

Gawd, other than the Stata, that view looks like it could be Washington, DC. Thankfully, the Vegans are changing up the look!

And here I was thinking they’d want those to be labs since they’re Christian Scientists and all……….:)

Great pics, 22marc. Res Ipsa Loquitor. Anyone need any more proof that Cambridge Crossing is a ghost town????? Granted, it WAS the day before Thanksgiving, but I’ve been there on normal weekdays several times - early morn ing, mid-morning, late afternooon and while there are several nannies...

I agree, it IS as vey lovely park…..but not much “city” around it to “block out”. THAT is the tragedy of Cambridge Crossing. It is so close to both North Station and Kendall Square, yet they built it as if it were Burlington, MA. There is very little urban activation here, low pedestrian, low...

I’m in the right place, son. And, as we can all see right there, was 100% successful in actually making you state a “why” for your usual Ding Dong Ditch posts. There’s hope for you yet, if you can grow up.

Don’t wait for an elucidation from him. His modus operandi is to ring the doorbell and then run away. He makes blanket statements without explanation - it’s what he does. He’s been asked over and over to give the “why” to his kneejerk pronouncements, but he has no interest in actual...

It’s like the Patriots offensive line on the one yard line.

Yeah, that’s not what RandomWalk was saying. His words: “I would not be surprised if LEED mandates end up driving designs towards the larger floor plates. It’s probably easier to hit the efficiency numbers over a larger plate than a collection of smaller ones.” That long building looks like it...

I’m being Captain Obvious in predicting THAT (along with the pedestrian bridge over the Public Gardens swanboat pond) is going to be one of the most photographed spots for couples visiting Boston. Well done. Cities should be filled with mirth, whimsy, creativity and these types of spots...

Oooooof……… https://www.bostonglobe.com/2025/10/28/business/simmons-university-sees-credit-rating-slashed-junk-by-moodys/?p1=BGSearch_Overlay_Results

I dunno about the folks here claiming it’s a 25 minute walk. Google Maps says it is 0.8 miles - - 18 minutes by foot, 6 minutes by bike.

Damn, that last balcony view of the skyline pic may be worth the emphysema!

Wasn’t that Gertrude Stein’s take on Oakland?

It’s too garish for Disney.

I agree - - and you're so right about 100 Centre Street (the gray bunker to the left). My folks lived there a few years - - very sweet staff work there, but wow, it must have been built by the Bulgarian Government in 1970.

from the article: ".....The Salem City Council approved the amendments to the city's zoning code in a 10-1 vote at its meeting last Thursday (with the lone opposition vote coming from Ward 1 City Councilor Cynthia Jerzylo) following a unanimous recommendation from the city's Planning Board....."...
