Just had some ice pellets / sleet falling in Lynn for a couple of minutes. Don’t think it was even really raining before or after #bostonwx

Does anyone have insight into what that old looking wooden coach might be on the right? I can't make out the letters below the clerestory. From the white paint + appears outdated/secondhand + possible advertisement painted on the side... maybe a circus train car?

Was this the filming location for the bowling alley scenes from the Catskills season of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel?

This reminds me a lot of the 6 family form of the New England triple decker apartment (basically just two mirrored triple deckers sharing a party wall) that was stacked together vertically. Designed with the same airy ventilated apartments w/ 360° windows and multiple porches. It adds an elevator! 🤩
What can mid-rise housing look like on side streets where lots are redeveloped one at a time? This example is a good one.
- All homes have windows in at least two directions.
- Elevator building.
- Entry door from a balcony for fresh air.
50x122 is a common lot size in much of western North America.

Accessible single stair flats on a 50x122 lot.
12 family size homes (or) 24 small units.

Spent yesterday afternoon on a hike through Lynn Woods Reservation. Breathtaking view from the top of Stone Tower! I didn't realize you could see all the way to the Atlantic Ocean.

Why does the air look so gross in Lynn/metro Boston today? Wildfire smoke?

December 28, 1887. The lead story in the Lynn Bee newspaper is Councilman-Elect Willis Browning, who had recently become the first Black elected official of the City of Lynn.

Wow, the Champs-Élysées is so beautiful! 😍(Spring 2023, cropped portion of a panorama)

Awful. Still, I am shocked it happened here and not the Spencer St crossing which has absolutely terrible visibility onto the bike path due to buildings and vegetation making it very difficult to see if anyone may be approaching the crossing. Plus it’s is always further blocked in by parked cars.

The replacement commuter rail bridges in Lynn (so far, just Commercial St) are being built with provision for only three tracks, instead of the four tracks that the original bridges could hold.

In light of the significant problems caused by single tracking on the Old Colony lines, was this wise?

Had been hoping I’d get teh tarik but I am happy with sugarcane juice, that’s also a pretty good one.

Shout out to the fresh pressed sugarcane juice vendor lady at the Fort Lauderdale swap meet with the whole crushing contraption and everything.

I had a perfectly ripe, soft and juicy red pear the other night and it put me in such a good mood that I had a great night of sleep. Good fruit is life changing.
There are few better reminders why it is worth being alive than eating perfectly ripe stone fruit.
