The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) is planning a "circumferential" subway line that would link the Orange Line with the Green Line at Lechmere and run along the campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to connect the Green and Red Lines at Kendall Square.
Opponents of a garage being built on Binney St. as part of the One Kendall Square development say their cause is a perfect example of how Healy's pro-development attitudes today infringe on neighborhoods.
Sullivan, now president of the Boston Chamber of Commerce, points to the East Cambridge Riverfront Plan and revamped areas of Kendall and Lechmere Squares as examples of the type of development he promoted.
Most Cambridge development has occurred along what Sullivan calls "the spine of the, city"--the transit lines along Mass. Ave. The concentration of hotels and high-rises in areas like Harvard and Kendall Squares, he says, is the result of a conscious effort to keep projects out of residential areas...
The Athenaeum Group, the garage's builders, is required by law to provide a certain number of parking spaces for its One Kendall Square Development. But the Federal Clean Air Act of 1973 froze the number of commercial parking spaces allowed in Cambridge.
