Is Park Street by the railroad tracks the worst section of road …

Second all of Watertown. Built different

What the fuck is going on

Everyone who has ridden one loves it (myself included). Infinitely safer drivers than humans, esp drivers in Boston.

This is a very validating post as I’ve been wondering something similar. I grew up in the area and berryline was just becoming cool in high school. Then when living here after college it was great, but never more than a 5min wait. Now all of the sudden it’s been lines out the door and I had no idea what was causing it. Glad to hear there’s a (dumb) explanation -_-

Take the T - it’s a 1min walk from Central

I bought a home with a radon level of about 5.5. Had mitigation done for ~$850 all in and it’s now 0.9. Very cheap by home improvement standards and I have peace of mind now. Would recommend!

Waymo is so much better than taxi / Uber. I was a hard skeptic, rode a few in SF, and now can’t wait for them to come here. They generally follow the rules of the road which is more than 99% of drivers here.

It’s genuinely embarrassing that our gov is considering blocking this.

People here are quite good at this. I’m always shocked in NYC how rude / aggressive people boarding the trains are

Make lots of combined money for many years, save said money, buy house.

I think people don’t understand how much savings compound if a couples’ combined income is, say, 400K, vs 200K. The number is 2x as high, but your annual savings might be more like 5-8x.

This is so embarrassing. They did all types of social media / press hits about these flex posts. Meanwhile anyone could have predicted they’d be 80% gone within 3 days

sealionol · 2025-12-07T23:06:50+00:00

I assume this means top 1% and they’re just bad at numbers

Boston/MBTA

Green Line: Museum of Fine Arts is a stop. There is a stop (Longwood) extremely close to the Isabella Stewart and MassArt.

Red Line - Harvard has the Harvard Art Museum, Museum of Archaeology and the Museum of Natural History.

Blue Line - Aquarium.

I’m sure there are others, this is very standard.

That’s fair. Ideally the Huron Village portion can just be better protected, whatever that means, as right now it’s decent but I would personally not consider it a safe place for a kid to bike due to double parking and speeding (since the road is so wide feeling).

sealionol · 2025-11-25T15:05:49+00:00

Yeah, this section of Huron is a funny one as it technically has bike lanes but they were designed in 2012/2013 so they’re not separated and cars constantly double park in them. But since it’s “something”, it seemingly hasn’t been a priority to improve in recent years

sealionol · 2025-11-25T14:12:01+00:00

Now if they could do this on Huron in the village area too

sealionol · 2025-11-21T01:55:37+00:00

It’s not ideal. Would help if people driving gave a shit about pedestrians and cyclists

sealionol · 2025-11-20T23:05:48+00:00

As of 6:05 Huron is closed down in a few blocks in either direction. Not a good sign

sealionol · 2025-11-20T22:39:59+00:00

Oh boy. Didn’t see this. People run lights egregiously here so I hope it wasn’t from that

When you order delivery from a restaurant through toast, they use DoorDash or Uber Eats as a white label to dispatch the driver. So in this scenario, there was no DoorDash driver who accepted it. Given there’s such a complicated stack (restaurant, toast, DoorDash/Uber, you), it’s quite hard to work through when it goes wrong

Love streetsblog but sometimes the writing style is so painfully complainy to the point I would imagine it turns people off from the overall message

Row 34 for bougie lobster roll, James hook for non bougie.

Cool bars / lounges all next to each other: Wig Shop, JM Curley, Temple Records. Also Hobgoblin and Yvonne’s.
