    New-build classical architecture (evoking old styles)

    This is something I didn't know, that these modern temples don't just look classical but are in many ways built classically as well https://worksinprogress.co/issue/modern-hindu-temples/ BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir -- Chino Hills, California completed 2012 More examples in the article...

    Dana-Farber Cancer Center | 1 Joslin Place | Longwood

    I think I remember seeing somewhere that they were removed for preservation but a quick search online doesn't readily find anything 🤷‍♂️

    Idea for fixing the housing shortage

    A quick search didn't bring up anything but I was reading about this package of Montana housing reforms from a couple years ago that finally cleared state supreme court review in March https://montanafreepress.org/2026/03/18/montana-supreme-court-upholds-housing-reform-laws/...

    The New Residential Conversion Thread

    If I had to guess I'd say because downward price rigidity for commercial space is really strong and will hold the market out of equilibrium in the medium term. In most cases I would agree with your logic here but I just think housing seems to be so broken that I would support intervention lmao

    Industrial National Trust (Superman Building) | Downtown | Providence

    In my mind it would feel about as isolated as the school of public health does from either the medical school or the main campus. As a standalone school or something maybe it could make sense geographically. Weirder things have happened, Yale bought the old Bayer facility 5 miles away to use as...

    Food Hall | Union Station | Providence

    I was also surprised my first time visiting the time out food hall in fenway when they didn't take my cash as payment. I read somewhere that the new market entrants for point of sale and credit card processing like stripe and square have meaningfully improved functionality and payment...

    Connected/Automated vehicles and infrastructure in Boston

    Connected/Automated vehicles and infrastructure in Boston

    For what it's worth, it looks like they've got 70 employees that do the remote help on 2-3000 vehicles. The technology is obviously in it's infancy, as they gain more real world use information or improve the underlying algorithms, I bet the supervisor to taxi ratio should improve hugely...

    Providence developments

    damn, kind of a bummer to hear the spaces aren't being well taken care of in the jewelry district/downtown. Last time I was walking around the medical school and lab buildings seemed to be alright, but I didn't really go much deeper into the neighborhood than that. The 195 parcels on the other...
