    Photo of the Day, Boston Style - Part Deux

    Would everyone rather I not post an occasional NY picture in this thread? Made more sense to me than creating a new thread but if you rather I not post, thats fine.

    Photo of the Day, Boston Style - Part Deux

    Say what you will about the failures of the Greenway but you have to admit this picture is really encouraging. You do remember what it looked like 15 years ago right? Nice shot xec.

    I was walking up 5th Ave past St. Patrick's yesterday and I looked up and what did I see?

    Boston College Master Plan

    The thing that always makes me laugh about the Newton/Brighton nimbys is that Boston College has been in Chestnut Hill for almost 100 years. Some of these residents act like the area was completely residential until a month ago when a huge university appeared out of nowhere. If they didn't...

    Historic Boston Prints

    I found the site that supplied that store. http://www.brearley.com/ They seem to be focusing on sports now but look in the special interest section. There is some great stuff.

    Wiki image hosting

    Since I'm leaving BC I will no longer have use of their servers. That means all of my pictures on the Wiki may stop showing up at some point in the next few weeks unless they are saved and hosted with another service. I know the wiki hasn't seen much use lately but I just wanted to give you a...

    Moving to New York

    I just finished up school and I'll be moving to NYC in a few weeks. I'll still be around the forum since it'll be my only (and best) source for what's going on in Boston. I'm sorry my picture posting has dropped off in the last few months...I've just been busy with school. I'm definitely...

    Historic Boston Prints

    There used to be a great place in the basement of Faneuil Hall that had all kinds of historic prints. The one I always wanted was the Custom House with the Hindenburg in the background. They had a website too but I can't find it.

    Urban Planning Schools?

    What are the salary ranges for someone with a Masters in UP? Do they usually work for private firms or for city govt?

    History in a new light

    I think they should light all of the steeples of the historic churches too. The only ones they really light are Old North, Park St. and Christian Science. Imagine the view at night from Cambridge with the previously mentioned churches, Arlington, Emmanuel, First, New Old South, Brattle Square...

    One & Two Liberty Place are copies of the Chrysler Build

    There's nothing wrong with drawing from Art Deco or referencing another building but like PerfectHandle said, it has to be executed properly. Even though these buildings are what 945 feet, they look stumpy, especially compared to the Chrysler. I think One Liberty would be much better if one or...

    One & Two Liberty Place are copies of the Chrysler Build

    Intentional to what degree? Its not a new design that pays homage to an old classic. They are so literal with the references and not just with the spire. They copy the Chrysler's window placement by using the dark glass to make horizontal lines and the setback on 2 Liberty is almost...

    One & Two Liberty Place are copies of the Chrysler Build

    To me both buildings are blatant rip-offs. Am I wrong?
