It has been difficult to obtain reliable infor- mation concerning this tribe, since for most of its acts we can assign no definite reason, and, therefore, cannot trace the underlying conditions leading to these acts. We gather, however, that they were (with a few exceptions) a gentle and peaceful people, whose habits were harmless but amusing. They are, however, well worthy of study on account of their quaint and curious customs, quite different from the customs of any other tribe whose history we have studied. For convenience, we have divided these manuscripts into four periods, known in the language of the tribe as, respec- tively, freshmanyear, sophomoreyear, junioryear, and senior- year — thus taking the tribe from the time of its earliest formation to the time of its fullest development. The followdng lists were discovered in Thf Office, a mysterious retreat inhabited by one of | the deities of the tribe, and consequently held in great awe, especially by the younger members.

  • A Pictoral History of the Boston Music Hall and the Great Organ
    A PICTORIAL HISTORY OF THE BOSTON MUSIC HALL AND THE GREAT ORGAN by Ed Sampson, President, Methuen Memorial Music Hall, Inc. 2018 Few instruments in the history of pipe organs in America have had as long, or as distinguished, a career as the Boston Music Hall Organ. The first concert organ in the country, it remains today one of the outstanding organs in America. The need for a large and centrally-located concert hall for Boston was discussed at the annual meeting of the Harvard Musical Association, founded in 1837 (Henry White Pickering (1811-1898), President) on January 31, 1851. A "Music Hall Committee", comprised of members Robert East Apthorp (1812-1882), George Derby (1819-1874), John Sullivan Dwight (1813-1893), Charles Callahan Perkins (1822-1886), and Dr. Jabez Baxter Upham (1820- 1902), was appointed to address the matter. The Boston Music Hall was built in 1852 by the Boston Music-Hall Association, founded in 1851 (Jabez Baxter Upham, President) and by the Harvard Musical Association, that contributed $100,000 towards its construction. It stood in the center of a block that sloped downward from Tremont Street to Washington Street; and was between Winter Street on the south and Bromfield Street on the north. Almost entirely surrounded by other buildings, only glimpses of the hall's massive granite block foundation and plain brick walls could be seen. There were two entrances to the Music Hall: the Bumstead Place entrance, (named after Thomas Bumstead (1740-1828) a Boston coachmaker), off Tremont Street (later Hamilton Place) opposite the Park Street Church; 1 and the Central Place or Winter Place (later Music Hall Place) entrance off Winter Street.

  • Weight and Height Restrictions That Impact Truck Travel
    ON REG ST IO O N B BOSTON REGION METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION M Stephanie Pollack, MassDOT Secretary and CEO and MPO Chair E N T R O I Karl H. Quackenbush, Executive Director, MPO Staff O T P A O IZ LMPOI N TA A N G P OR LANNING TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM DATE: December 21, 2017 TO: Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization FROM: William S. Kuttner RE: Weight and Height Restrictions that Impact Truck Travel 1 INTRODUCTION This memorandum presents information about bridges in the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) area that have signs restricting the weight or height of vehicles permitted to pass over or under them. MassDOT personnel monitor these weight and height restrictions, along with a bridge’s physical condition, or rating, and summarize them as inspection reports in MassDOT’s internal database. However, the physical condition or rating of bridges is not the direct concern of this study. The concern of this study is that truck restrictions cause trucks that are otherwise fully compliant with Massachusetts and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) size guidelines to use more circuitous routes than necessary to reach their various commercial destinations. Forced circuitous truck travel increases expenses for freight carriers and customers, increases the total environmental impact for a given level of freight traffic, and increases the negative impacts on local residents and communities. This study characterizes the severity of height and weight restrictions on trucks in the MPO region. The information developed will be used to evaluate projects considered for inclusion in two MPO planning documents: the Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

  • 615M Millennium Tower and Burnham Building One Step Closer to Transforming Downtown
    $615M Millennium Tower and Burnham Building One Step Closer to Transforming Downtown The BRA Board unanimously approved the proposed Millennium Tower and Burnham Building in Downtown Crossing. The project will bring housing, office space, retail space, restaurant space, and a health club to an area undergoing a dramatic transformation. The project will preserve and renovate the Burnham Building and develop a mixed‐use residential building. “I am proud of the decisive progress being made by Millennium Partners just 8 months after announcing their lead on the Millennium Towerand Burnham Building,” said Mayor Menino. “This iconic development will invigorate the heart of our city with new residents, business owners, and private investment, solidifying the promise of Downtown Crossing.” The keystone to this redevelopment is the restoration of the historic Burnham Building, former home of Filene’s. Originally built in the early 20th century in the Beaux Arts architectural style, the building was the only Massachusetts work and the last prominent building designed by the acclaimed architect, Daniel Burnham, the designer of Chicago’s Marshall and Field Department Store and New York City’s Flat Iron Building. The restoration will include opening up the building at the street level for office space and retail, repairing the façade, updating all systems, taking full advantage of the large windows, wide column spacing, and high ceilings to provide the kind of creative, commercial space that retailers and Boston’s urban workforce demand. The Tower, shaped as a tapered “wedge”, will present a slender profile to the west, emphasize the distinct and historic character of the restored Burnham Building, increase daylight opportunities for the Washington Streetside, and maximize daylight to offices in the BurnhamBuilding and lower floors of the Tower.
