Moved here in 2007 when I was in my mid-20s. Grew up in Central Connecticut, but tended to gravitate toward the NYC area when I was younger because my mother's family is from Long Island and NJ. After spending a few years post-college in upstate (far upstate) NY and northern Connecticut as a...

Walked by this site earlier today. Looks to be under construction.

Both buildings appeared to secure financing in June 2020. Feels like a bad time to build office and lab, but then again, if loans were secured in 2020, the money will never be cheaper. (I do hope this one is built. Sampler seems to be a positive sign)...

Haven't been inside yet, but curious if these multi-media walls have been installed or will be? From what I can see, it seems the connector was built true to the renderings, but I haven't seen any sign of these in photos, so far. Those would certainly go a long way toward inviting people in...

This response may come across as overly flippant, so I apologize for the tone, but I feel like there is a political reality here that is going un-discussed or unacknowledged. The single biggest reason why we can't seem to get the T fixed is that there is little to no chance any politician -...

I've been asking myself this question for the past couple of months - since all of these crazy slow zones and restrictions started. Who is actually making the call on where these slow zones are and how fast (or slow) the trains are allowed to go? Because it's starting to feel like the lawyers...

Took the Red Line from JFK to Quincy Center this morning for the first time in two months and it continues to be just awful. I was on one of the older series of cars and frankly, I don't think their controls are suitable to the low speeds the trains have to travel at....nearly the entire way...

So Minneapolis is one of those cities I've considered visiting, but I've been reluctant only because from what I've seen, the street life...particularly in the downtown area, seems completely lacking. I've done a lot of exploring on street view and watched a few videos on You Tube of people...

^^The residences are being marked at Ritz Carlton? Is that a new development?

This doesn't surprise me. I've heard rumblings of some major construction projects having issues aquiring steel girders. For example, the extension of Autoroute 35 in southern Quebec to the Vermont border has been stalled because they have been unable to source girders for the last river...

The few times I was in that store, my instinct was that it just wasn't terribly practical to drive into the mall property, park in the garage and walk across the sky bridge into the store itself, where the items I was looking for were on multiple levels. It just didn't strike me as a good...

I can actually see this one from the top floor of my home and I've been waiting for months for the top floors to get their horizontal lighting. Has there been any speculation or rumors if the top mechanical portion of the building will have some sort of lighting effect, maybe even some color...

Glanced at the harbor Web cam tonight and it almost looks like the crown lighting got taller?! https://www.youtube.com/live/PSpuVt_t5ng?feature=share

Pomona also has a location in Winthrop. It might have been their first. They are part of the Antique Table family of restaurants on the north shore.

I'm usually pretty even-keeled when it comes to teething issues and challenges with new equipment, but it's starting to get a sinking feeling that the CRRC acquisition is going to go down in MBTA history books next to the names Boeing and Breda.

The demo of the garage in earnest (not tied directly to a specific building site) started in late 2021, barely a year ago at this point. At one point earlier this year, the demolition was proceeding at such a pace, a portion of the garage let go prematurely and killed a worker and crippled the...

Awesome shots! I honestly didn't realize they had started to eat into the actual track. I thought the current work was just in the former stable area. FYI...you also got a couple of good shots of the construction site of the new Sora Revere apartments at 93 Bennington Street. I actually used...

yes....pretty sure you can't build with a timber frame once you go over 6 or 7 floors. Once you get into all steel or concrete, you're looking at a whole new budget situation.

I role the GLX to Union Square yesterday and can confirm the speed limit on the viaduct between Science Park and the Gilmore Bridge is 10 MPH. I rode yesterday for the first time since early summer and was curious to see if any improvements to speed/efficiency had been made since and I have to...

At this stage, all I ask is for Druker to actually build this thing and not leave a “Filene’s hole” at this intersection. EDIT. Well, it looks like he has a significant tenant, so at least the probability of a hole is greatly reduced...
