All these stupid wires and poles in our cities- I can't stand it!! It just looks so developing-nationesque! It's one thing in residential home neighborhoods, but areas like this and a lot of Cambridge?! Ugh just bury them for fucks sake! I know others have brought up the investments the cities themselves would have to put in, but there has to be some other better way. Is it possible to encase them in like a jersey barrier sized type of ground level structures that run along the sides of roads or sidewalks and just get buried at crossroads/intersections? Does this exist anywhere in the world?

Folks, this is the Mystic FREAKING River! To anyone around in the 1970's, this picture is mindblowing..........and it is only going to get more mindblowing in a relatively short amount of time.

It's striking how these towers (plus the tower-on-parking-garage at Hood Park and the Union Square residential tower) are a lot more visible from random places in the region. Definitely puts the Sullivan Square/Assembly/Union Square region on the map as a "real place," as it were.
