Pro tip: do it in reverse. You then don’t have to double back from Charlestown. Plus it makes for a cool story in reverse chronology.

I get it, you are too young to see a perspective on life other than the one you live. Best of luck with your red line commute.

…by people who already use it. You aren’t solving any problems just relocating them.

I think it would be filled by people who already lack a car.

It’s not about reducing car dependency, it’s about reducing daily car use for commuting.
Implying that the avg family that owns a suburban single family home and two cars is going to trade all that in for…a condo…just to commute? Come on man.

Sure I guess that is the short sighted approach to never reduce congestion and commuting by single occupancy car. What’s your next brilliant idea? Bulldoze the millions of existing single family homes?

I agree with your suggestion to install congestion fees for commuters....AFTER the MBTA provides more station parking and service frequency. You cant punitively erase a behavior without a viable alternative already in place. The current lot capacity and service frequency doesn't offer that.

I owned a Wrangler for awhile…it’s an ideal city vehicle, at least before they made an abomination of that model making it 4 door.
Tight turning radius and metal bumpers make it perfect for street parking.

Additionally most fireworks of that scale are electronically triggered vs your uncle’s backyard display that uses a half smoked Newport.

Boden Lane used to feature a one way car bridge to get over the tracks. That bridge was damaged and now is only open to pedestrians to cross. It’s not at all creepy and the first thing you will pass other than residences is a Chabad house and then town fields and Rec center.

We have plenty of hate, its just not directed toward sexual orientation or gender assignment.
We prefer to hate on more definitive qualities like how you drive, how slow you walk on the sidewalk and where you get you preferred slice and cup of coffee. You know, stuff that actually defines your character.

This is the only local place I have been: https://www.bostonpaintball.com/ashland
Bonus points because they have some spring loaded pump action options for younger kids to participate.
