Boston needs to do like Atlanta. MARTA here once hired a Public Housing Queen as its CEO.....rail lines went to places like Perry Homes and the like instead on the north side where suburban ridership could have made it more profitable.

I don’t really care how Boston gets around. Just another Blue City in an ocean of Urban wastefulness.

Lil Barry just appointed someone from Atlanta as GM:

Beverly Scott, who will officially assume the post of MBTA general manager on Dec. 17, was given a three-year contract by the T’s board of directors in September after leading Atlanta’s mass transit system for five years.

Recently I was visiting Boston on business. Driving around there was a big headache with traffic plus many streets are not well signed. Easy to get lost especially if one doesn’t use GPS—like me. The older I get the less I enjoy crowded, congested cities and locations.
