Most of Dorchester and Somerville aren't 15 feet away from the 4th most important center of employment in Greater Boston though. These parcels are surrounded on 3 sides by much taller buildings, that mismatch alone signaling to me that there's something other than economics that dictates the...

https://www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/13/business/time-out-market-boston-closing/ bruh I don't think I saw this coming lol, place seemed to be generating a good amount of foot traffic, plus its not like it had empty stalls

how much of that cost is the 120 car underground garage lol, even then still sounds expensive.

https://wbznewsradio.iheart.com/content/kraft-group-invests-millions-to-build-new-headhouse-at-mbta-assembly-stop/ Looks like some of that agreement money will be used to expand the Assembly station. I remember the renderings of the pedestrian bridge looking quite goofy with a 10 minute detour...

No surprises here lmao https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-23/luxury-apartments-are-bringing-rent-down-in-austin-denver

Wow good to hear they were allowed to go bigger, wish that was more often the case in Boston ngl. Maybe it'll look a little monolithic until everything else builds out, but that's what Taipei looked like before the surroundings were filled in around Taipei 101. Even then, I really like the...

I think tour montparnasse looks funny to me because its so isolated. Hancock Tower does look really nice in its context, but I would argue that's partially because there is a mix of different high rises in its vicinity. Reflexively shutting down construction of high rises after the first one...

Bruh common knowledge to y'all but I was just flipping through some of the early pages for the project. This thing was already 10 years in planning/development by the time the thread started almost 20 years ago. It's been through 3 recessions, probably dozens of plans and now the bottom has...

Does anyone know how much the modular tower costs? I was trying to dig around but only found the phase 2 information which is going to be 1 million dollars per unit 😬

Just my 2 cents: I think this pattern of overinvestment has been seen with pretty much every example of a market with booming demand right (canals and railroads in the 1850s, dotcoms and telecoms in the 90s/2000s, pre-great recession housing, the current Chinese real estate situation, probably...

Millennials yearn for simpler times when they ate at mall food courts as children 😂. Legit though, I'm curious why these things are doing so well too. I know personally, I ended up eating at Timeout market waaay too many times when choosing where to eat as a group. Was a way to not choose a...

ngl just kinda happy to see somebody giving Jahunger their flowers. Loved that place when I lived in Providence and was happy to see when they opened up the new location in Cambridge.

Do we know if this proposal is a by right development under the new zoning?

https://www.newhavenindependent.org/2025/11/07/build-build-build-downtown-plan-advances/ Looks like there might be some major rezoning on the horizon:

Pauli Murray and Ben Franklin colleges at Yale are so nice ngl. The new dorms at Brown by comparison are uhhh, at least the students really like living in them lol.

Thanks for putting this together, always good to see what the experience is like in a more normal housing market lol. Even in terrible locations without anything to do yet, these units would fill up instantly at 50% more ngl. Case and point being low vacancies in the post apocalypse (for now)...

Love to see it
