Reply to The MBTA and Green Line are mentioned: We Finally Know Why It Costs So Damn Much to Build New Subways in America by timboot
I don't think that consultants are the only reason why transit is so expensive. The United States tends to have a lot more regulations and community feedback to contend with.
The California high speed rail project is a good case study for this. They had to deal with a tremendous amount of lawsuits from people who didn't want rail in their backyard, and would often use any kind of legal mechanism to stop rail from being built in their community.
I mean, think about how the Red Line in the 80's already had budget allocated to extend to Arlington. If I recall, a significant portion of that tunnel was actually built (and still exists) before the good citizens of Arlington put the kibosh on a station in Arlington.

Reply to comment by Dajoey120 in Any good recommendations for therapists in the greater Boston area. 30 years old and found out i have ADHD by Dajoey120
My read of it is they're basically like independent contractors, and Thriveworks is just a service to better connect clients with therapists. My therapist and psychiatrist haven't once mentioned Thriveworks in about a year I've been seeing them (anxiety, death in the family).
I would still suggest maybe checking in with your PCP first. That's where I went to first, and my PCP gave me various recommendations for mental health. Could be they have someone they trust they could recommend to you. Good luck!!

Thriveworks has been a good resource for me. They can help you get set up with a therapist and/or psychiatrist within your network.
Wouldn't hurt to consult your PCP either.

I recently got a wonderful Reuben at Mamaleh's. I have friends who absolutely swear by S&S in Inman.
Anyone have recommendations for a potato knish? Haven't had one since I lived in New York.

City Hall by Frederick Wiseman.
The House by the Cemetery by Lucio Fulci.
Pieces by Juan Piquer Simon (though, this was mostly shot in Spain. I always get a laugh about them thinking those Spanish exteriors could pass for Boston).
Of course you can't miss an all time classic like The Next Karate Kid.
