In 1995, the state said it would build a new walkway across the Charles along the 's North Station drawbridge to connect the new North Bank and Nashua Street Parks – and provide a direct walking route between Cambridge and North Station.

Nearly 30 years later, the T is planning to replace the bridge – but without any bike and pedestrian paths:

Exciting news, the Beer Garden is coming back on Friday! Possibly the most charmingly uncool beer garden in the area, and therefore my favorite.

I keep seeing calls for missing middle housing in SFH neighborhoods but very few calls for legalizing commercial/mixed use.

Densifying residential only will be a disaster, that makes car traffic and parking worse as everyone still has to drive for all errands. Cities have to legalize all aspects of a dense neighborhood or they will fail.

Today, my Administration is canceling student debt for 277,000 more people – bringing the total number of Americans who have been approved for debt relief so far under my Administration to 4.3 million through various actions.

I will never stop working to cancel student debt.

YAY! IT'S PREMIERE DAY Pls tune in today at 2pm EST for my conversation with North America's transportation prodigy Petru Sofio about his journey to Dutch-inspired safer street advocacy work and specifically a passion for safer, more effective intersections and signalization.
Petru provides a blueprint for how anyone in the community, including a teenager, can get involved, get educated, and help create a safer, more inviting environment for all ages and abilities.

Even in the best work places, it seems like the messaging is "you can stay home when sick"

It really needs to shift to "you must/should stay home when sick"

Watching sickness rip through my work, causing a lot of time out, and it's entirely unnecessary. We've learned nothing at all from the last 4 years
