Lead planner of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers COB CSRM Project Team assured me today that all comment letters on USACE's Feasibility Study will be published.
Hat's off to the City's climate team for its groundbreaking collab w/USACE.
My letter to USACE: fortpointer.com/Archive/2026…
I have a deep personal appreciation for municipal employees, and really love the fact that BMRB’s Shattuck Awards honors a few each year.
Here’s the 2026 list of awardees. 🙏🏼
Shane Pac, @BOSCityCouncil Director of Policy and Research, was a Shattuck Award recipient this evening. So well-deserved. 🔥💯🙏🏼
On the topic of dark money nonprofits with undisclosed backers, media darling Greg Maynard of the 501c4 boiler room formerly known as “Boston Policy Institute” has joined the 501c4 Pioneer Institute. bostonpolicynotes.substack.c…
Interior of USPS Dot Ave is under construction, but when it comes to holiday decorations, USPS employees never disappoint. And I mean “never.” ❤️
More from the guy who, just yesterday, fabricated a story about Bromfield St. from whole cloth, smearing Wu and Healey, and who the Globe lends its imprimatur to week after week, featured without full disclosure as to who pays his bills (reportedly GOP sugar daddy Rick Green).

Join neighbors 10/27 at 6pm to discuss 2 proposed billboards at the Omni Hotel (Summer St), updates on interim flood protection & road improvements plus local happenings. Details at fortpointboston.com/2026/10/…
While media darling Paul Craney continues to promulgate falsehoods without accountability, the Globe fails to inform readers that Craney is ED of a 501(c)4 "dark money" nonprofit funded by undisclosed backers. A boiler room operation.
The symbiotic relationship is disgusting.
And FTR, here's the development plan for 11-21 Bromfield St, with an LOI filed in June. Craney somehow wasn't aware of the history of this block. bostonplans.org/projects/dev…

Today, ten (10) Councilors voted to accept a $3+ million grant awarded by MAPC to improve BlueBikes e-bike program.
Councilors Flynn and Murphy opposed acceptance.
South Boston trails in cycle accommodation. Predictably, stats involving cars striking cyclists are alarming.
When early voting at ICA yesterday — even knowing my responses to 9 ballot questions (NO: 3-5-8) — it took me over 5 min to fill out the 3 pages, and double-check them.
I expect long lines on Election Day and, based on history, predict Clr. Flynn et al. will fuel public outrage.
Took an hour away from work to feast on $1 oysters at Legal Seafoods in Downtown Crossing today, and every Tuesday (at any Legal location) in October. 🦪
The audacity of the master developer of Seaport Square to mount this BS rendering, implying a 1.5-acre park is planned.
This “park” is already built. It’s a 1/4-acre blob of Astroturf (yes, plastic grass) on a 1-acre hardscaped retail corridor. The Globe carried their water.
Attended Mayor Wu’s State of BPS last night. I appreciated that the Mayor brought data & statistics, not simply rosy claims. I also appreciated that the Mayor mentioned a forthcoming initiative to step up civic engagement. The QR code below was provided as a means to learn more.
Early voting at ICA today. Ground floor of ICA is Chapter 91 public civic space licensed at DEP ~25 years ago.
Let me repeat: No kid should have to turn to their parents and ask why they can’t afford an event on a public park. Or why celebrities and cos get special treatment… inequitable. Public parks are built & maintained through a social compact, one eroding incrementally over time.
Cookie potluck & book party for anyone who could afford $45/ticket on Boston Common, the nation’s first public park. Shared sacrifice, shared benefit?
Yes, I’m disappointed in the Wu admin for a record of exclusionary events on public parks + City Hall Plaza. Call me an outlier.
