    Closing Newbury Street to cars

    I don't think it needs to be pedestrian only all the time, but they defintiely should take out the parking spaces and make the side walks wider for most of the street. ....at least between Dalton and Mass Ave

    Raffles Boston (40 Trinity Place) | 426 Stuart Street | Back Bay

    There isn't really any historic urban fabric where this building is. Thankfully it doesn't seem to be crowding the Hancock too much, and the fact that it is slender and glass will help minimize that. The Hancock is a massive sculpture as much as it is a building and I hope the sky around it is...

    The Alcott (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End

    Re: Longfellow Place (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End ...and Paris is criss-crossed with lots of subway lines, which make it easy to get anywhere without a car. I agree with the people saying Boston needs a major expansion of public transportation. Also, consider...

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    Re: Congress Street Garage Development | West End These towers are so close together and part of the same project, why weren't they designed to complimenting each other? They should play off each other. The office building will add something different to the skyline, but the residential tower...

    Future Skyline

    There actually is a nice balance having a cluster downtown and two tall buildings standing apart. It makes Boston's skyline look unique, but I think the Copley Place Tower is going to throw things off a lot more than the Christian Science tower. But, ya, we'll get used to it, the same way I...

    Skanska Office Tower | 380 Stuart Street | Back Bay

    I kinda like it, but I will be surprised if the curves and bulges aren't designed out and we end up with a straight glass box in the end. I don't think this Jetson's building without the stilts would hurt this street any if it gets built.

    500 Boylston Infill | 500 Boylston St | Back Bay

    Silver Line to Chelsea

    Sounds great except that the Chelsea Street bridge takes 30 minutes to go up and down, so the schedule will never be reliable.

    This is near Wonderland Station in Revere Beach, part of Waterfront Square, this project.

    Chelsea Infill and Small Developments

    Ahh, Chelsea gives no fucks about the quality of buildings that go up. I want to complain about the at grade parking in every new building, but our public transportation is useless, so what can you do?

    Marriott Moxy Hotel | 240 Tremont Street (Parcel P-7A) | Theater District

    Re: Theater District Parcel P-7A | 240 Tremont Street | Downtown A tiny parcel is getting infilled, preserving a piece of the fine grained urban fabric. I'm happy about that.

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    The ability to add money to your card at the fare box needs to be eliminated immediately if you want to clear congestion at boarding.

    The Girard | 600 Harrison Ave | South End

    Re: 600 Harrison/600 Harrison Ave/South End/Boston http://www.bostonredevelopmentauthority.org/projects/development-projects/600-harrison-avenue It says the parking is underground and there's 3600 sq ft of retail, presumably on Harrison.

    The Girard | 600 Harrison Ave | South End

    Re: 600 Harrison/600 Harrison Ave/South End/Boston Giant spires are probably never going to happen so they should take the pyramid caps off and add a little cornice and balustrade, or anything to make it look finished. Right now it looks like garden shed roofs plopped up there.
