It will be a mistake for the Moakley Park redesign to leave Day boulevard in place. It’s not clear from early renderings if this is the plan or not

Thesis:
The Tesla fiasco will lay bare the fact that most retail investors are not suited to be owners of a company, from a management perspective.

“Josh Kraft’s mayoral campaign has apparently convinced too many people in City Hall who ought to know better that making streets safer and investing in public transit was politically risky.
