I hope the new apartment residents don't complain about the Gay Pride Block Party that happens every Gay Pride on Chandler Street right in front of this building. 😊
I've had dinner at Stillwater and it's quite good. The chef is from Stillwater, OK. When my nieces came to visit last summer, they had to have dinner here as well since they all graduated from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK.
Returning trip from Washington D.C. last Thursday. (April 25th) It's always such a thrill to take the Hingham Ferry home from Logan, and I don't know why more people don't use it. It's so convenient and such a great view!
On a recent flight down to Washinton D.C., I had a nice view out of the window. This was taken Monday, April 22nd. The first photo really highlights the build-up around Kendall Square in Cambridge and Union Square in Somerville.
As others have stated, I've been super impressed with High Street Place programming. They have DJ nights and this coming Sunday, A Queer Food Fest! It always seems to be full of people well past the 5pm working hours. I would give Millenium a bit more of a break if they had some robust...
Interiors look really nice. I wonder how much was recycled from Lord & Taylor? I was only in Lord & Taylor a few times, but I don't remember those high clerestory windows. Plus, the exposed steel beams with fireproofing look new here.
Speaking of the fountain, does anyone know if the fountain on Milton Place is working, or will be working this summer? It was shut off last summer, and I don't know if it was because of construction at Winthrop or just totally unrelated. Now, this building is landmarked too! :)
Fantastic summary. Plus, we have beautiful mountains and forests to our north and west, plus fantastic beaches and islands for the entire coast. You can take a train from Boston to go skiing in the winter (Wachusett) and take the boat for summer beaches and nightlife. (Provincetown) We...
I had the good fortune to grow up in a small Nebraska farm town. (I always say it was like Mayberry R.F.D on the Andy Griffith Show.) My family is still located in Nebraska, Missouri, and Oklahoma..............3 very conservative states. I follow the politics and conversations in those 3...
I love all the improvements to Back Bay station and the street activation, yet I agree that this design is pretty terrible. Is that blank wall just above the first floor supposed to be parking? It looks like about 4 floors of nothing. I realize the existing garage is terrible, and this will...
Wow, that is awesome...........and also SAD at the same time. I love how you can click on the stations for a photo and information. Thanks for posting.
I know it's preliminary, but you would think a little creative design would go a LONG way for people to get excited about this and onboard with the concept.
The street experience on this one is amazing! It should win an award. I mean, look at how much that guy in shorts is enjoying the architecture and street level activity! It's such a level above that European street CRAP in Barcelona or Paris. I want to hang out here all day and enjoy the...
