From the Redfern site, "Kennebec Block will consist of 2 or more buildings and roughly 500+ residential apartments."

@Redfern, the Kennebec Block is very exciting and looks so great – love the scale, the materials and the proposed finishes; and the updated renderings for Washington Street / The Tavata are looking soooo good! The Redfern portfolio really has a cohesive sophistication with contextual variety...

I wish this could mean that in a foreseeable future, we could run trains between NYC and Portland via Springfield & Worcester, with a Boston stop only at West Station (to avoid a turnaround at North Station).

Totally — I was referring to the architectural (and architects) significance more than purely their age, and part of any museum’s mission is inherently good stewardship of significant works — new or old.

It’s cynically ironic that the argument for justifying the tear-down of 142 Free Street is in great part due to the fact that it was significantly altered over the decades, while simultaneously arguing that altering the Payson Building next door is somehow an improvement. John Calvin Stevens...

The ticketed waiting room is for travelers on any of the three railroads serving the station: Amtrak, LIRR, NJ Transit — and regional rail travelers on all lines are actively in the mix of Moynihan users.

There is a Ticketed Waiting Room on the west side of the Concourse, which has seating and dedicated rest rooms for about 100 travelers.

Sort of parallel to the use of red brick in the 19th century.

So helpful to see some of their finished projects – especially their "Hawkins" building in Oregon, which appears to be an inspiration – to get a better sense of potential quality, materiality and finish. Thank you for sharing!

More importantly (kidding not kidding): is that an official Redfern rendering of that angle of the proposed development? Looking good from that angle. :cool:

From the US League One website, they’re drawing a connection to globally recognized teams — they did their research:

I’ll bet he gets some tough questions.

Opinion: Portland Museum of Art appears to have lost its way Stinging opinion piece from former PMA director points to weak stewardship by the current director — and a related story again points out the current salary (>$300k and supposedly 20% less than last year). Not looking good for PMA nor...

The bus station isn’t moving and that is busy with tons of riders from Boston, Central and Coastal Maine — and the rail station moving should mean the bus station wouldn’t need to add more parking to accommodate future growth any time soon, so it is still well-positioned to be a transit-oriented...

Or A cornice — this one looks like a drip edge. Totally agree this looks like those cheap mid-century apartment buildings across Eastern Mass. If a design is this simple, it needs great materials and proportions. This design does not (yet?).

Nice work! Looking back to compare this against the initial rendering, it does appear that the new building will run from end-to-end of the site along Washington Ave, and there’s a four-story section at the southern end of the lot (likely to allow a view-shed to the related Redfern townhouses...

Exciting to see the concept and massing proposed! I hope that, as it evolves, the facades get more texture and some variation in pattern. In this image, the left side (facing the park) looks most satisfying: The windows appear more closely spaced, their rhythm broken up to align with the...

The undulating facade of this big project in a low-rise neighborhood, combined with the materials, made me wonder again what might be in store for 165 Washington. :cool: A New Building Aims to Be a Good Neighbor in Low-Rise Neighborhood

Where could we see the renderings, please?

That is hardly a justification for eight lanes.
