    This. It would be much nicer on the Northeastern/Colleges of the Fenway campus as a dorm building. Here it does indeed feel dead.

    New Red and Orange Line Cars

    Hmm... Nicer than DC's new trains? I would disagree.

    What would it "cost" JetBlue to declare Boston a hub?

    Do they provide strippers or is it BYOS? :-?

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    hopefully the Four Seasons logo will be on each of the three "sides" and big/bright enough to remedy this.

    If it's a lousy newspaper, you won't mind not reading it, right? Gosh, let's hope WSJ survives without your patronage. :rolleyes:

    Logan Airport Capital Projects

    I don't know that it will make a huge difference. I often go to Logan on the Blue Line and as it is it's fairly easy to catch the bus that is always waiting to go to all the terminals. On a couple occasions the bus hangs out at the first stop (the Car Rental Center) for what seemed like an...

    One Kenmore Square | 560 Commonwealth Avenue | Kenmore Square

    Re: Crossroads at Kenmore | 560 Commonwealth Ave | Kenmore Square I think it's quite beautiful (don't know about at the ice/rain sheeting issues, but being from Chicago, I suspect Gang has some experience with that).

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    I absolutely agree--we shouldn't compare Boston buildings to NYC buildings (or buildings in 30+ other cities), but when one invokes "world class," that's the comparison being suggested. I like the building well enough--it's a nice addition to Boston but few out-of-towners are going to ohh and...

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    I agree that some bronze-tinted glass might make this a little more special. As it is, I think it's a solid B building (B+ if graded on a Boston curve) and nothing as nice as the NYC "similar-vernacular" buildings Dave posted in #4007. It's streamlined and completely inoffensive (like...

    Do you know if that's just MA law or is it federal (i.e., is this true of all Costcos)?

    Longfellow Bridge update

    Already???

    General Infrastructure

    Very graceful. A shame that it doesn't seem to connect to the Longfellow at bridge level--you go down a tall set of stairs, walk 30 feet, then have to walk up a tall set of stairs. I'm sure they have their reasons...

    Amazon HQ2 RFP

    if your point is that these cities do not have extensive international destinations, that's true, but to say they have none is just factually inaccurate.

    In which case, the Hartsfield-Jackson fire came at a really awkward moment.

    New Red and Orange Line Cars

    It may look this way in 2017 with the current crop of politicians and this current national mood, but the pressures on any city hoping to be viable by 2025 will quickly turn this around. Even non-transit fans will see expansion as inevitable as Boston's peer-reference group becomes more global...

    Amazon HQ2 RFP

    Nope. The argument is not (and never was) that Pittsburgh does computer science better than Boston or engineering better than Boston or medical science better than Boston or Pittsburgh has "better culture" than Boston--that's childish 'my dad can beat up your dad' crap. The point is that...
