Have seen it irl. It looks good from one angle, looks weird from every other angle.

Turns out that that’s not the case at all according to another poster’s comment.

No, you’re wrong. Liberals aren’t wishing death on anyone. Makes me believe you’re just a troll.

Once upon a time before the delivery app prices got all fucked up MacDonalds used to actually be affordable me and my friend used to get the deals (it was like Family Bundle™ for the price of a regular meal deal) for a MacDonalds that was literally idk 5 minutes walk away? It was literally just at the end of the road and then had to cross nonantum street

Myself. I paid for my pass damnit, I’ll take the bus 1 stop sometimes if I feel like it and it’s already coming down the street.

It was actually some very enthusiastic New Caledonians.

I had Chinese takeout delivered from a place 2 blocks from my apartment one because I really didn't want to put on shoes

There's some crazy pictures, like Boston public library in Copley surrounded by... Nothing. One building next to it and everything else to the horizon, looks like it's taken with the background going off to the northwest, just empty

You mean a community of Scots may have lived there when the streets were named? 🤯

I have seen it in person too after first only seeing pictures, where I thought it looked like shit. My feeling is that it will look better to everyone when the weather is sunnier, we have later sunsets, the park is greener, etc. It is not great, but it's not as awful as everyone makes it out to be.

I don’t see why people hate it at any angle to be honest. Is it my favorite piece of art? No at all. But, for a public park, you want something that’s not too bold because people’s taste in art varies so much and you want to aim for it to be acceptable to most. I’m still confused why it’s not. It fits right in with public park art, in my opinion.

First time on Newbury in a few months. Lots of new businesses rotating to fill old ones or empty storefronts. Excited to see what survives the year.

Reply to comment by hdiggyh in Overnight stay in Beverly? by SensitiveArtist69
While in general this is true, there is one hotel I know of right in downtown Beverly. The Cabot Lodge right on Cabot St, it's only about a block from the theater.
It's $141 for the night this Wednesday so if I were OP I'd probably just do that. The Salem hotels look to all be around that price or more anyways, so might as well save the need for the uber ride.
