Wu basically isn't in the conversation for the MBTA. She can exert influence, but has not jurisdictional power.

This was my exact opinion. The thing I ordered regularly was great, but if you mixed the favors wrong it could be terrible. At Chipotle, rice, meat and beans can only be combined in so many ways.

"Things that work everywhere else won't work here because we're special"

There's very little visibility from the outside, and things usually get started late. I know Bluegrass Night before it moved was at 9:30pm.

Only a five and a half mile detour one way!

The Yellow follows RT-128 which would make detouring to Forest Hills pretty absurd. This map decided to put the inner ring along the 47 Bus instead of the 66, so there's a pretty big gap between the Silver and the Yellow.

Exactly, I worked from the office all summer because they keep that place at like 68°.

Y'all need to plan your vacations better! Take a hint from the snowbirds, Florida in the winter and Mass in the summer!

The DeSantis landslide is important because Florida used to be a.major swing state. Massachusetts is solidly democratic, with a weird tendency to elect republican governors for divided government.

Did the cost of car stackers dramatically fall in the last year or two? Seems like every project is including one these days.

Yes, flexposts are super ugly, but they could have been avoided if people in cars stopped parking in bike lanes. Unfortunately, the only sightly option is installing real curbs but that would cost many multiples of what flexposts do.

Adding more lanes doesn't solve congestion.

The whole American economy is based on speculative housing and the government backstop to keep it always trending up. It's what all of the 2007 recession was about.

They aren't here for you. I'm sure the folks at the JFK Library and Greentown Labs and the conference thing they are doing are looking forward to it.

A ghost kitchen is a place that only operates on the delivery apps and has no physical storefront. They usually operate out of other restaurants or just non-retail kitchens.

It'd be more accurate to say that Cafe Sushi is a take out restaurant indefinitely since they still have a real world presence.

>"If we just focused on arresting people... we'd be right back in the same situation that got us here."

Real "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas" vibes here

I do not see the word Boston anywhere in OP. Even if this was in Boston, recommending somewhere in JP as a replacement for a lunch spot in the North End would be inappropriate.

I honestly don't think Dave's Fresh is a bad suggestion, but your reply that everything here must be viewed from the perspective of Boston proper is just wrong.

Not sure if you are new here, but the subreddit is officially for the greater Boston area.

From the description:

>A reddit focused on the city of Boston, MA and the Greater Boston Area.

Are there many people who take the T just for lunch?

Really good subs, but they are only open like 9-6 on weekdays, so pretty much only a work from home lunch for me.

My dude, the paper was published in Harm Reduction, of course it's part of the harm reduction movement.

That conclusion unfortunately was only looking at the problem from the drug users and the harm reduction stand point and really ignores the property owners view. The take away from many of the interviews was, "I'd avoid the blue lights unless I really needed a spot, then I'd use it anyway and it's be more dangerous for me to inject without seeing right." Which has obvious negatives for those two parties, and quite a positive effect for the store owner.

My dentist sent me an email! They have never emailed me anything other than appointment reminders.

It's a chicken and egg problem.

Our city nightlife is structured to wrap up around midnight, so why would we run empty trains in the middle of the night?

Our trains all end at midnight, so why would places stay open later than that?

I honestly think extending T hours is the wrong first step. It's expensive, poor service, and has big trade offs for maintenance. The easiest thing we can do is stop arbitrarily making businesses close early. If a taco place wants to serve until 4am let them.

There is no parking allowed in this photo... So no one should be exiting into traffic.

Not enough room to keep the median and two lanes and still accommodate parking, bike lane and the buffer. You can't sacrifice the buffer since otherwise people will exit their cars directly into the bike lane.
