O’CONNELL Editor’s Introduction: Our Editor’s Choice selection for this issue is excerpted from the book, The Hub’s Metropolis: Greater Boston’s Development from Railroad Suburbs to Smart Growth (Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press, 2013). All who live in Massachusetts are familiar with the compact city of Boston, yet the history of the larger, sprawling metropolitan area has rarely been approached as a comprehensive whole. As one reviewer writes, “Comprehensive and readable, James O’Connell’s account takes care to orient the reader in what is often a disorienting landscape.” Another describes the book as a “riveting history of one of the nation’s most livable places—and a roadmap for how to keep it that way.” James O’Connell, the author, is intimately familiar with his topic through his work as a planner at the National Park Service, Northeast Region, in Boston.

Tolling and Transponders in Massachusetts
DRIVING INNOVATION: TOLLING AND TRANSPONDERS IN MASSACHUSETTS By Wendy Murphy and Scott Haller White Paper No. 150 July 2016 Pioneer Institute for Public Policy Research Pioneer’s Mission Pioneer Institute is an independent, non-partisan, privately funded research organization that seeks to improve the quality of life in Massachusetts through civic discourse and intellectually rigorous, data-driven public policy solutions based on free market principles, individual liberty and responsibility, and the ideal of effective, limited and accountable government. This paper is a publication of the Center for Better Government, which seeks limited, accountable government by promoting competitive delivery of public services, elimination of unnecessary regulation, and a focus on core government functions. Current initiatives promote reform of how the state builds, manages, repairs and finances its transportation assets as well as public employee benefit reform. The Center for School Reform seeks to increase the education options available to parents and students, drive system-wide reform, and ensure accountability in public education. The Center’s work builds on Pioneer’s legacy as a recognized leader in the charter public school movement, and as a champion of greater academic rigor in Massachusetts’ elementary and secondary schools. Current initiatives promote choice and competition, school-based man- agement, and enhanced academic performance in public schools. The Center for Economic Opportunity seeks to keep Massachusetts competitive by pro- moting a healthy business climate, transparent regulation, small business creation in urban areas and sound environmental and development policy. Current initiatives promote market reforms to increase the supply of affordable housing, reduce the cost of doing business, and revitalize urban areas.
