As a Boston area resident, I'm ecstatic! Can't tell you how much I look forward to not having to go to New York. ;-)" This was rumored a few months ago, and I am glad to see it happen.

  1. Big Dig by ek_adam · · Score: 4, Offtopic

    I sure hope that they've finished the Big Dig (the I-90, I-93 construction project in Boston) by then. Otherwise everyone will be stuck in the potholes of South Boston before they ever get to the convention center. The Silver Line mass transit system is supposed to go to the convention center, but it's part of the Big Dig too.

    In 1996, the Big Dig scheduled completion date was 2000.

    In 2000, the Big Dig scheduled completion date was 2002.

    In 2002, the Big Dig scheduled completion date is 2004 or 2005.

    My person prediction has always been that they will finish the Big Dig when they have the contract signed for Big Dig II.
