...this law as but another attempt to legislate away the current chronic housing shortage in Cambridge by unrealistic bureaucratic rules, instead of attacking the root problem, which is simply that Cambridge has too few apartments and must have more built fast.

For example, how many readers are aware of the fact that our city has a 35-foot height limit in its biggest zoning district? Shouldn't we question whether this is an appropriate...

...communiqué explains in brief why he was one of the 20th century's great military leaders. He may not have been a grand master of strategy or tactics; yet, better than any other commander of his time save George Marshall, Ike understood what is most important in modern warfare: organization and coordination.
