  • CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT
    CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT The 2003 PMT outlined the actions needed to bring the MBTA transit system into a state of good repair (SGR). It evaluated and prioritized a number of specific enhancement and expansion projects proposed to improve the system and better serve the regional mobility needs of Commonwealth residents. In the inter- vening years, the MBTA has funded and implemented many of the 2003 PMT priorities. The transit improvements highlighted in this chapter have been accomplished in spite of the unsus- tainable condition of the Authority’s present financial structure. A 2009 report issued by the MBTA Advisory Board1 effectively summarized the Authority’s financial dilemma: For the past several years the MBTA has only balanced its budgets by restructuring debt liquidat- ing cash reserves, selling land, and other one-time actions. Today, with credit markets frozen, cash reserves depleted and the real estate market at a stand still, the MBTA has used up these options. This recession has laid bare the fact that the MBTA is mired in a structural, on-going deficit that threatens its viability. In 2000 the MBTA was re-born with the passage of the Forward Funding legislation.This legislation dedicated 20% of all sales taxes collected state-wide to the MBTA. It also transferred over $3.3 billion in Commonwealth debt from the State’s books to the T’s books. In essence, the MBTA was born broke. Throughout the 1990’s the Massachusetts sales tax grew at an average of 6.5% per year. This decade the sales tax has barely averaged 1% annual growth.

  • St. Marks Area (Ashmont/Peabody Square), Dorchester
    Commercial Casebook: St Marks Area Historic Boston Incorporated, 2009-2011 St. Marks Area (Ashmont/Peabody Square), Dorchester Introduction to District St. Mark's Main Street District spans a mile-long section of Dorchester Avenue starting from Peabody Square and running north to St. Mark’s Roman Catholic Church campus. The district includes the residential and commercial areas surrounding those two nodes. The area, once rural farmland, began to develop after the Old Colony railroad established a station here in the 1870s. Subsequent trolley service and later electrified train lines, now the MBTA's red line, transformed the neighborhood district into first a “Railroad Suburb” and then a “Streetcar Suburb.” Parts of the area are characterized as “Garden Districts” in recognition of the late 19th century English-inspired development of suburban districts, which included spacious single-family houses built on large lots and the commercial district at Peabody Square. Other areas reflect Boston’s general urban growth in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with densely clustered multi-family housing, including Dorchester’s famous three-deckers, found on the streets surrounding St. Mark’s Church. The district, particularly in Peabody Square, features many late 19th-century buildings, including the landmark All Saints’ Episcopal Church, the Peabody Apartments, a fire station, and a distinctive market building. These surround a small urban park with a monument street clock. The St. Mark’s campus, established a few decades later, mostly in the 1910s and 1920s, is a Commercial Casebook: St Marks Area Historic Boston Incorporated, 2009-2011 collection of ecclesiastical buildings set upon a large, airy parcel.

  • Chapter 4: Systemwide Context of The
    CHAPTER 4 Systemwide Context for the PMT TRANSIT SYSTEM: EXISTING CONDITIONS OVERVIEW The Boston metropolitan area is served by an extensive transit system comprising several comple- mentary components. One component is a hub-and-spoke radial network of rapid transit, express bus, commuter rail, and commuter boat lines that is geared, during peak operations, to efficiently move large volumes of people into and out of the urban core for weekday commutes. Local bus and trackless trolley services fill in gaps and connect the radial “spokes” by offering line haul service in heavily congested urban areas, feeder service to rail, and some inter-suburban linkages. Demand- responsive transportation for people with disabilities and the elderly is also provided. The MBTA is the primary transit provider in the Boston region. The MBTA district is made up of 175 cities and towns and includes communities outside of the 101 municipalities of the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization area. The MBTA also provides commuter rail service to Provi- dence, Rhode Island, which lies outside the MBTA district. As can be seen in the following table, almost 99% of daily boardings are on the MBTA’s primary modes: rapid transit (heavy rail and light rail), bus rapid transit (BRT), bus/trackless trolley, and commuter rail.
