The New Residential Conversion Thread

[DBM]

As long as we can also discuss why you're spectacularly rude.

That goes without saying!

I'll also remember to bring along a printout of the PNF for the 101 Tremont project, which I just happened to check.... and noticed that it states (Section 1.3; boldface/italics mine):

"Once converted the building will include approximately 67,170-SF of dormitory space with approximately 8,938-SF of ground floor/below-grade retail/restaurant space (existing to remain)"

Finally, we can also certainly discuss how, given that Suffolk's 10 West St. dormitory opened in 2008, but the Back Deck restaurant at its base didn't open until 2012, then, Suffolk University actively recruited a bar to open at the base of one of its Downtown dormitories (instead of inheriting it from a prior landlord).

Cheers!

I hope your right and that Suffolk keeps a bit of vitality on the street. Contrast Emerson College which seems to have taken over and sanitized much of the Alley and Boylston St. There used to be a handful of bars/nightclubs there that have all but evaporated.
