Re: T construction news
Since I haven't seen any updates about this project...Monday 8/1 the MBTA and contractors started the next phase of demolition and construction as part of the federally, state, and privately funded Waterfront Square developement.
The 1995 entrance and ADA compliant ramp are being demolished to allow the final sections of the parking garage/busway/bus terminal being built adjacent to the station to be put in place. A temporary wooden stairway and ramp are being used to allow access to the station, with half of the train platform being walled off to funnel passengers to the faregates...unfortunately they are simple blueboard walls with large gaps at the top so anyone daring enough could hop over them or bash through to get a free ride.
