Pointing that bridges are a fix to homelessness is like saying another slice of cake will fix homelessness.

This reads like my uncles unhinged family e-mails. Like a lot of "facts" but not really anything that points to economy-wide statistics. But, you know what, I won't sell magazines or clicks if it's not a bit unhinged.

I don't think the problem is that the dollars weren't used - we live in a neoliberal society where austerity means there's always a project that's starving for money - the problem is that the project just occupied space on the ledger that other cities and towns have a right to access. Boston was...

Am I misremembering? Isn't this what you have to do today? Also, as a former East Somervillen - the T is definitely doing this kind of long ramp in many places, including going past the platform for some distance to access the platform at a designated crossing..

Right now, the option appears to be no build or a compromised project.

Rave at the pond?

Other places seem to be able to work this out much quicker - is the T just especially bad at this job?

yeah - my remark was going to be that they don't seem to be doing anything for transit based on the plan images. Is there a secret tunnel that's not being shown there?

Seems like this is a VZ configuration issue - I'm on Comcast home wired/wireless and it's been fine.

I can't imagine that the improvement here means changing the street design - Medford is changing but not as fast as putting bus lanes on such a local street. I think it must be about the lack of a replacement for the 94 and that the 96, as proposed doesn't hit the same neighborhoods. Plus the...

I feel like I'm about to see Fraiser Crane walk out of one of these photos.

Seems worth a letter to the editor to be honest.

Other than this article's assertions - i'm not sure that theres any data/analysis that backs up the position that millionaires are fleeing. If anything the secondary indicators (tax revenues) seem to indicate that the millionaires are staying put (or potentially making more than ever since the...

I read that article this morning - she ends up looking like a flip-flopper and, somehow, Marty seems like he did a better job at keeping things going and staff happy than Michelle: An 11 person mutiny is kind of huge.

I recall there being a drainage inlet there - is it just not kept up and full of trash and debris?

That *is* what we have for all the cities that have been permitting housing with inclusionary zoning: brand-new homes for every part of the income ladder. Some for ownership, mostly for rentals.
