    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    I'm always surprised that Vicinity smokestack building is still there. It's so gross.

    "Dirty Old Boston"

    Same! If you replace the elevated 93 in that photo with a far narrower elevated railway, suddenly the place looks like Gotham (albeit still quite dirty).

    Union Square Somerville Infill and Small Developments

    Every single aspect of your post is inarguably accurate. Guessing you're local -- consider running for city council at large or ward city council (seriously). You already have my vote.

    Amazing that anyone ever thought that would be a good idea...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Ever try to navigate Châtelet-Les Halles or Shinjuku? I want for U.S. train systems -- and stations -- to up their game (and to do so quickly), but SS is pretty good.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    tossed in some of the lounge pix, as well -- I realize in no way related to the new tower, but it seemed like a decent amount of folks were interested in that area. it's really cool and once again the staff were (today) very accomodating and proud and happy to let me roam around and check it...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    I'm there 5 days a week (if we're going there, which seems dumb). Sorry the font and placement upsets you(?).

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    The arches are amazing and there's so much to celebrate about the whole project -- that anyone is critiquing the fucking font and kerning (good for you for having a vague awareness of leading and kerning. very smart...) of the gate signs is so fucking idiotic. We examine and find fault with...

    Boston Skyline Photos

    For all of the -- totally understandable -- critiques of "blue glass boxes" (and towers), having lived here my whole life I really appreciate the color variance in today's skyline. Growing up it was 90% browns/greys and today's skyline is way more vibrant. I'd love to see some vibrant green (Ah...

    Boston to update its zoning code

    "...for new buildings to tower up to 700 feet over the historic downtown..." It's truly funny how ass-backwards so many this city -- which I love, to be clear -- can be when compared to others. Would anyone in Chicago, NYC, San Fran, and pretty much every other American city with historic...
