Re: New Street - East Boston East Boston Waterfront, Mattapan Health Center Projects Move Forward Today The Boston Redevelopment Authority has approved projects for a mixed-use residential development on the East Boston waterfront and a community health center in Mattapan. The New Street...

Well said, I agree with your post. And I had wanted to mention one of these turbine accidents since in comparison I don't think a solar panel would pose the same type of potential risk...unless it slides off your roof and hits you in the head :) I say we put all of our efforts into solar. If...

I am all for alternative energy solutions, but wind farms seem to me that they will be obsolete relatively quickly given the rapid increases in solar production efficiency. I worry that in 10 years we will be stuck with this wind farm in Nantucket Sound that will not be producing enough energy...

I have a reverse commute every day from Boston to the South Shore and I constantly shake my head at the volume of cars trying to get into the city every morning. Obviously these people would rather sit in traffic and pay to park than take public transportation, so until that paradigm shifts we...

going to auction: Fenway Condos Head To Auction Block By Paul McMorrow Banker & Tradesman Staff WriterToday Failed California lender IndyMac is working on a familiar task, but in an unusual location: It's cleaning up the pieces of a soured development project, blocks from Fenway Park. OneWest...

JetBlue would have made a lot of sense for Boston (or the other way around)? Hard to find a reason for BJs to go to Boston when most of their stores are suburban?

Thanks, I missed that! Then maybe it is a very good deal?

Actually not a bad deal considering it pays for itself after the 16th time (assuming $5/beer). Much cheaper than attending a handful of games + eating & drinking. The one sticking point is that if you're the only one out of your friends/girlfriend/wife to have this season pass, are you just...

Ha, I love how Park tries to spin this that somehow a "maturity default" is different from any other default. And "we've never missed a payment", yeah except the last one where you had to pay the principal back on your loan!

The lack of height forces the developer seek a large footprint to increase buildable square footage for each building. Unfortunately it is driven by the financials of the underwriting and since the high land cost is included they were forced to max out the FAR given any height limits for the...

Re: Filene's My guess is no. The current state of the commercial real estate market is preventing large projects like this to get off the ground. There is a ton of vacant office space already in the Boston CBD, and even the newer buildings coming online (Atlantic Wharf, Fan Pier), are having...

Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion I just think the city's tax exemption on a project like this makes sense in the way that you have to "spend money to make money", or in this case, take a little less money for the greater good of the city. There are many ways this project will...

Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion John, you cannot be serious. Would you prefer that Liberty not build anything at all? Or perhaps move their people to Waltham or another suburb with a plethora of unused office space? Also, the direct and indirect additional spending that will...

Exec angry over film-tax e-mail Says may hinder SouthField Studios By Donna Goodison | Tuesday, February 2, 2010 | http://www.bostonherald.com | Business & Markets The backer of the proposed $147 million SouthField Studios project in Weymouth has accused Massachusetts Film Office head...

Get over yourself.

These are rental units.

I'm pretty sure that if we all had the choice to have a parking space with our apartments, we'd take it. Plus, having the garage will alleviate any additional cars that will be looking for street parking in this neighborhood. I lived in Southie for four years so I know how vital parking is for...

Revere?s Ocean Club Heads To Auction Block from B&T: Revere?s Ocean Club Heads To Auction Block Steven Fustolo's Ocean Club condominium development in Revere went from record-setting market-mover to the auction block in under two years. The 242-unit project had promised to bring Miami to Revere...

Banks are willing to lend, but not $550 million. This project is too big as it is currently underwritten and the rents they are assuming are just not realistic.
