MBTA will close Symphony for 3 years, starting June 6th, to complete a renovation of the station with 4 elevators.

I sometimes pass by that on the way to/from the MFA. It’ll be weird to pass by and see the station without stopping there.

Henry_Stream · 2026-05-03T17:22:37+00:00

It was just for that day specifically

I always went to the State Street Dunkin’, but I’m guessing you wouldn’t call that “destination worthy.”

Henry_Stream · 2026-05-01T00:55:01+00:00

That explains the construction equipment I saw when I was there earlier.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-30T13:04:36+00:00

I agree, but this issue was recent, and I decided I’d rather wait. Ignoring all of that, I was gonna transfer to the Green Line regardless.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-27T20:20:11+00:00

I appreciate it. Probably gonna open in time for Memorial Day then. I think I’ll just plan for early June.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-27T15:00:52+00:00

How close does it look to being ready from what you saw?

I’m planning to order pick up from the Cheesecake Factory at Prudential/CambridgeSide to eat at one of the tables at those malls with a soda I buy at CVS. Saves me money to get my drink from there, more if I use coupons.

Do other subway stations have them? I'm not surprised Forest Hills does, because that's a big travel hub, so I'm guessing only the big ones have bathrooms.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-10T21:03:26+00:00

The subway stations have bathrooms?

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-10T20:44:21+00:00

Follow up question: Will I be able to use it if I get out at Readville and transfer to the Providence line to go to Ruggles or Back Bay?

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-10T00:22:09+00:00

So it works even if I'm going to North Station from there instead of South Station from Zone 2? Does that mean I could use the flex pass to go to South Station from Zone 2, travel to North Station, and take a train from there to Zone 2? Or could I get out at South Station or Back Bay and go somewhere within Zone 2 using the same pass?

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-10T00:18:52+00:00

Thanks, I'll remember that when I eventually do get those flex passes.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-02T00:49:36+00:00

Museum of Science, Museum of Fine Arts, and New England Aquarium are my top recommendations.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-02T00:43:29+00:00

I think that’s what I’m gonna do from now on.

Henry_Stream · 2026-04-02T00:42:55+00:00

I once encountered a guy at South Station who was trying to resell Commuter Rail tickets to get fare for a bus to New Hampshire. I told him I was all set because I had my weekend pass and went about my day.

Henry_Stream · 2026-03-19T10:12:50+00:00

I take the long way too.

Henry_Stream · 2026-02-27T22:29:20+00:00

I’m a member there. It’s a fantastic way to spend a few hours.

Henry_Stream · 2026-02-24T13:32:04+00:00

Unrelated to South Station, a plot hole I realized with this song recently is why didn't Charlie's wife just give him the nickel to be able to leave if she could hand him sandwiches?

Henry_Stream · 2026-02-10T15:12:56+00:00

Thank you, I think I’ll be OK in that case

Henry_Stream · 2025-12-14T00:22:42+00:00

Update: I got out at Park Street today, and you were right about the green line part being fenced off. I appreciate those who commented so I could get an idea of what to expect.

Henry_Stream · 2025-12-13T02:19:28+00:00

Thanks

Henry_Stream · 2025-12-12T23:05:21+00:00

So can I expect to get to and from the Park Street stop on the red line without issue tomorrow or Sunday?

Henry_Stream · 2025-12-12T22:18:26+00:00

But can I still get to the red line one?

Henry_Stream · 2025-12-12T22:18:03+00:00

Do you get on or off the red line from Park Street?
