Removing parking when you find yourself with an excess is a pretty worthy reason to delay, from my view. And yeah, by "economic downturn" they mean the economy for them. Interest rates are kind of too high to build right now. Of course, the reason they're still high is that the overall economy...

Good point - I stand somewhat corrected :)

I suspect, FWIW, that the reason USAir Shuttle and USAir weren't co-located has to do with the history of the... umm... Trump Shuttle. Unfortunately, we have him to thank for the Northeast Corridor shuttles Delta and American run today.

I'm not quite on board with that. You'll never turn Route 9 into Comm Ave.

And not from an overpriced brand showroom on Newbury Street.

If you look closely, it seems like they drew it as a Commuter Rail stop, but if this ever happens it will be Green Line.

And that terminal was really built for it. I think the replacement was in the works before 9/11 (Google Earth imagery shows cars parked on the roof right up until September 2001), but the expanded security checkpoints broke the space up terribly and looked very haphazard - I think it got to the...

Immediately before demolition, it was Continental and USAir. Eastern was the ancestral tenant, and I think they paid to build it.

So this is technically a different project than the thread was established for, but whatever... the name still works. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/05/14/arts/museum-of-science-renovation-bloomberg-philanthropies-public-science-common/ Once again, our favorite love-to-hate-him former NY...

Agreed. Too bad they missed the market window and it will sit vacant for years.

Well, first it would be incredibly disruptive since (as you point out) it serves basically every domestic carrier that isn't JetBlue or Delta. Also, I actually don't think there's anything wrong with B other than low ceilings in the check-in area. The actual gate areas have been renovated to be...

I still would have liked the green/copper version better, but this looks pretty handsome. Well, when the company goes belly-up in 6 months and that becomes a Lego sign it will be much more readable :)

Only a couple of used car lots left on that stretch of Prospect (I'm sure there's some interesting history as to why the street had just gobs of them) - then there's the brick industrial building on the corner of Oak Street and things are pretty much built out. All without any plan for road...
