Not the mention the pedestrian cut-through to the street behind it, the extra wide sidewalks, and stately tree canopy. Urbanistically, it's as good as a landscraper gets.

You're right, but why isn't the street sign in that picture white, like every other Brookline street sign?

I thought I was the only one who liked Church Park. Serious post-war Europe vibes on that block.

I'm with @FK4. These trying-too-hard-to-look-subruban car-centric developments (1) don't make a dent in the housing shortage, (2) don't improve the urban environment (3) add more cars to the roads, and (4) in this case, threaten to destroy something that is a genuine asset. Putting aside the...

Makes me think about this wonderful old post about Boston's color palette and the importance of brick in helping to keep the city feel vibrant and warm in the winter. And yes, this is an issue in the Seaport. For as lively as the neighborhood is on a Friday evening between May and September...

Hell yeah - that's what every single building adjacent to a pedestrian alley should be doing. Make Boston Istanbul.

It's not frustrating, it's right. Once again: the agreement made between Kraft and Everett included specific provisions related to the city of Boston. Of course Boston needs to have a voice in this process.

Yeah, we take in 1 million legal immigrants. But the American economy demands at least 20 million immigrants to function. These are the people that make your sandwiches, clean your floors, and build your precious skyscrapers. They are not in any way shape or form an economic burden -- in fact...

Nothing you've said here indicates that you have any idea how the American immigration system actually works. (Hint: there are no line-jumpers, because there is no line. It is effectively impossible for any of the millions of low wage workers who prop up our entire economy to enter the country...

What part of the essentially perfect urban fabric of Bay Village do you want to see destroyed so that the skyline can look a little cooler from 15 miles away?

Holy shit, they got them to eliminate every single inch surface parking. What a massive win, build this now .

Not at all. "Why aren't the Red Sox spending like the big market team they are" is one of the biggest issues being debated by the national baseball media right now.

So for those of you who aren't Red Sox fans, the big narrative around the team these days is ownership's sudden unwillingless to spend as much on the team as they have in years past. Some in the media have started to speculate whether this project is forcing the team to tighten its belt. I don't...
