    One Harbor Shore Dr. | Fan Pier Parcel H | 1 Harbor Shore Drive | Seaport

    When Fan Pier was first proposed, a Grand Hyatt hotel was going to be the centerpiece. Then the hotel was supposed to be at this site. Now, they are going with residential. Given that hotel rooms in Boston routinely go for $500-900 a night, it's a crime that the BRA (or whatever they call...

    Dana-Farber Cancer Center | 1 Joslin Place | Longwood

    321 Harrison Ave | South End

    This building has long been home to various state agencies. You know that a neighborhood has been fully gentrified when the state gets tossed out to make room for for private tenants, see for example the Hurley Building in Government Center.

    Assembly Square Infill and Small Developments | Somerville

    Time for the Commonwealth to sell the courthouse and put up a large office/lab/housing. It's a dump and the vast unused lawns are a waste of space in Somerville at this time.

    Braintree infill and small developments

    Funny that this article doesn't mention the condos built at the Natick Mall (nee Natick Collection). They hit at the time of a great recession and many were sold at foreclosure. Probably a good investment now, but not then.

    The Bon | 1260 Boylston Street | Fenway

    As I have said 100 times in these forums, we still need gas stations! Even in wacky CA, they have not banned sales of new gas vehicles until 2035 (and they will still allow hybrids). In Europe, gas stations are included in new buildings. why does it need to be development or gas stations?

    The Globe says the courtyard issue will be addressed: "Bill Gause, executive vice president at Leggat McCall, said his firm plans to redo the central tiered courtyard — in part by flattening it and building a garage underneath — and to provide more public access points to it. In particular, he...

    Everett Waterfront Redevelopment | 52 Beacham Street | Everett

    If these tanks as well as the ones on Rt 1A in East Boston close, what will happen to the gas/oil supply in E. Massachusetts. I know its popular to be anti-gas/oil these days, but I don't see enough solar, wind or EVs to keep the power on and vehicles moving. Is anyone considering this?

    Newton Infill and Small Developments

    This is the old Natick Armory, which had a respectful addition to the historic building. Newton might as well knock down the armory as they are showing so little respect to the original building.

    Saugus Developments

    This is pretty far back off of Route 1. I agree its not a great location, but its not like you can see drivers racing by out of your windows.
