    Reasonable Transit Pitches

    Assume there will likely be intermediary terminii based on line demand. Yes. So GHIJK all stop at Forest Hills. Oh and I meant C-J for the Amtrak marriage. Lowell (B-J) should get a couple daily runs to NYC and beyond as well. The B-J and the C-J already go through that run every 30 minutes...

    Regional Rail (RUR) & North-South Rail Link (NSRL)

    Oh also... https://archboston.com/community/attachments/1667397989308-png.30200/ Good boy, Goldenretrievers!

    Regional Rail (RUR) & North-South Rail Link (NSRL)

    Sidebar your honor... it seems like some of our evidence has been tampered with. I was looking at some old NSRL plans and as I had feared, some of the North Point development parcels have absorbed previously spoken for tunnelling turf. Exhibits A and B... Obviously some of the...

    Reasonable Transit Pitches

    Taking a breather from current events for a second, i.e. waiting for the Healey stance to be announced. Without getting into minutiae of what is immediately possible -- because there are a lot of things that would need to change for the ideal to happen (like fed-match, full electrification...

    Biking in Boston

    If only we had some sort of tagging system you could slice threads how you wanted. Yes... I agree there are often differing concerns about types of bike infrastructure and users. I am saying if someone in Belmont wants me to advocate for their path (and I would) and I live in Boston, I might...

    Biking in Boston

    From an awareness > advocacy standpoint, they should be one thread.

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    Just don't make eye contact. It gets really mad.

    New Red and Orange Line Cars

    Yeah... Good call on mentioning this. Honest mistake. It's funny how rah-rah business-speak has crippled our language. This is clearly a failure of neo-liberal economics -- aka the usually blame-freed global free market. We as a nation decided to forget how to build light rail trains...

    Dorchester Bay City (nee Bayside Expo Ctr.) | Columbia Point

    I think this might qualify as Herzog adjacent in that we're talking about baseball

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    Until the garage comes down that tower is going to look like a debutante in barn boots. I mean she's cute... and has rich parents... but what's going on down there?

    I-90 Interchange Improvement Project & West Station | Allston

    We can only hope that this has has many people using it as Assembly Square does. There are some lessons to be gleaned from that comparison though. I see parallels in how car-centric ASQ is by design since it’s unconnected to anything else but the OL and a couple sporadic bus routes. Despite the...

    Maxwell | 35 Garvey Street | Everett

    How many cigarettes does a 1BR go for there? Tell me and I’ll put some money in your commissary account. Okay, fine… a few ramen flavor packs too.

    Hurley Building Redevelopment | 19 Staniford St | West End

    ...And not all brutalism is worth saving. Massive amounts of people objected to the destruction of the West End. Those thousands of people were generally poor, and therefore, ignored. This was built when a handful of grand egos met a fat developer bankroll and ill-applied state funds. The main...

    Logan Airport Capital Projects

    I think I get it. This means we all have to pay for the cavity-searching, fourth amendment violation we didn't solicit or give cause for... in the name of security theater. Specialty retail. Solid euphemism. Will use. /snark. I've been inside to see the active part of Terminal E. It's already...

    MBTA Commuter Rail (Operations, Keolis, & Short Term)

    This looks like a byproduct of the stupid Pioneer Institute flavored SSX-NSX instead of NSRL chicanery. I will not miss Governor Milquetoast and his flowing red pen.

    I-90 Interchange Improvement Project & West Station | Allston

    This already needs a road diet. This ain't Las Vegas. We don't need 40-mule-team turnarounds. As someone said above -- this is a CITY! And as F-Line said above Babcock needs to go all the way through. MASS Dot should build as though that could eventually happen whether BU wills it or not. If we...

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    If there is someone on the platform drivers will stop. I think it's okay that they skip if nobody is getting off. Shorter dwell times, faster trips FTW.

    Winisimmit's just south of the Tobin, in Blobeto. Oh, you aren't aware of the hippest new urban enclave -- BLOck BElow the TObin. And I'll stop mocking realtor-speak when I'm damn good and ready!

    Maxwell | 35 Garvey Street | Everett

    If anyone thinks that this area can't be something nice because of the oil tank view, please look at what Los Angeles did. This is Venice Beach in 1952: From Malibu on down... It's now some of the priciest residential real estate on the planet
