Boston learned lesson from man whose family left Massachusetts for Salem in 1700's. Geoffrey Massey did much of same when Vancouver had opportunity. With Rockies as background for sculpture of skyline, liveable neighborhoods not ruled by vehicular traffic congestion. Drew a university on mountain top free from distractions and barriers to thought processing by student's,faculty, & support staff.

From the updates I've monitored, NONE of the predetermined targets for economic activity promised by Amazon has been reached and therefore none of the incentives promised by either the Commonwealth of Virginia or Alexandria have been given to Amazon. It hasn't cost the governments anything thus far, but it hasn't generated the economic growth promised either.

I was there last Saturday, the design is indeed incredible but the building stands half empty. Half of the shops are not opened and there were very few people provided that it was Saturday afternoon. It is quite a distance from metro station, maybe that’s the reason? After that I went to Jing’an Temple area and it was bustling with people. I am a little afraid that it won’t survive, or just stays as a white elephant. Without people buildings, even the most astonishing ones makes no sense

Great video, but The Empire State Building is no where near "the oldest skyscraper in New York". There are too many older skyscrapers to mention, but The Chrysler Building, The Woolworth Building, The Flat Iron Building, 40 Wall Street, and The Metropolitan Life Insurance Building are just a few examples of spectacular skyscrapers older than the Empire State Building and are all still standing...

Developers were salivating over this land for decades. Luckily, Boston officials kept their cool and prevented unsightly over development for quick money. Buildings were kept low - largely to not affect the airport, but also consciously so as not to create a bunch of dark wind-swept tunnels. Height restrictions and open space requirements were developed to keep the area at a livable scale. So it might not look impressive from a distance, especially to those who think having a towering skyline is somehow meaningful (it's not), but for modern rapid development, it's impressive at a human scale.

LOLOOL **New HUDSON's YARDs*??? WTF... Do your research. The first urban regeneration of a Brown Field Site is "Canary Wharf" in London, UK. It has been replicated globally. La Défense in Paris, France. Canary Wharf was start almost Forty Years (40) ago. You are comparing a tiny transit centric redevelopment on a Brown Field Site... to Hudson Yards!?? Hudson Yards are nothing more than a Johnny Come Lately - there are 1000s of Cities that each have had bigger, better, faster, and more extensive than a pithy redev adjacent to a railway station. Yet another person who thinks ... Border of the USA = world ends because 'there be dragons' everywhere else on Earth. LOL haha
