  • 2/5 Bill the H. 1 year ago on Google
    Mecca of unending, burdensome taxation and government oversight. Absolutely tragic that you have to feel a sense of dread and drudgery whenever you are called to this great structure. Boston government is an absolute mess, filled with people who supposedly work for the citizenry, and yet ticket and tax and toll its public into utter oblivion, with no system set for impactful forgiveness, no standard of compassion, absolutely soulless in its operation. Robotic. Edit: they're adding a cool plaza to spruce up the disgusting building that towers over its financially strained citizenship. Cool, man.

    The core of the city is a large, open region surrounded by a concrete jungle with a lively ambiance. It's fantastic.

  • 1/5 Artist Don S. 2 years ago on Google
    I took a look at it today. This is ridiculous. Whoever is overseeing this project for the city of Boston needs to be fired. The construction company that’s doing this project should never receive another contract from the city of Boston. The News media needs to do an investigation on what’s going on here.

    They are doing a constructive project there. They are trying to improve it. It can't get any worse! City Hall is an Ugly place! They are adding trees & grass. Let's hope that they can make it into a place where people WANT to go!
