A new neighborhood?: Hub Blog, an old-fashioned and opinionated Boston sidewalk superintendent, loves these
types of stories. I had heard of these projects along the McGrath-O'Brien Highway, but never quite grasped them amid all the other issues related to the Big Dig. Now I want to know more. What's with the status of the proposed Urban Ring rail system? Sounds cool. Can't wait to see the final plans. (Which, if they pull it off, could also mean thousands of new housing units, not an insignificant matter in Greater Boston these days.)
