I’d also consider the Hanover Theatre in Worcester - also does Broadway tours. I just went there for Mean Girls in the fall because the tour hit Worcester and Providence but not Boston

I wouldn’t take a group of teens to a brewery.
Flatbread in Davis Square might be fun, they have candlepin bowling, good pizza, and a bar for the adults.

I work in a field where we could have primarily WFH/Hybrid but norms were that you WFH no more than once/week at most and you were pretty much expected to be in the office.

Reply to comment by obsoletevernacular9 in Does anyone live in Cambridge-Boston-Brookline WITH a baby and WITHOUT a car? by Bostonosaurus
My sister lives in NYC and she met us for dinner yesterday- they took the subway there. After I told her about the sign I saw she mentioned that she and her husband had to carry the stroller up/down the stairs at least at one end of the trip. And obviously this is a huge accessibility issue for wheelchair users, people who use other mobility aids or even just struggle with stairs. (My sister is fortunate that most of the places she takes her kid are places she can easily walk to.)

(I’m currently in NYC and they have signage that 95% of the stations will be accessible by…2055!! Glad Boston is better than them in that aspect.)

Yep, I’d bring layers. February’s temps ranged from -30 to 60s, and March could very well be the same. If we had snow that melted, or it rains, you’d want the waterproof shoes.

Just note that as asked in r/Somerville multiple times/week, the path doesn’t go all the way to Lechmere yet but should hopefully open in the spring

I work in seaport and I preferred the walk to fort point over the walk to northern (I think google maps claimed northern was closer, but the other one had fewer busy roads to cross). Haven’t gone in awhile but that’s a bummer

You can just show up now - ordering ahead makes it a tad faster if you know what you want, but it’s not like 2020 anymore. Or even like treehouse pre-Covid.

I have family in the Midwest who have expressed jealousy that we’ve had Treehouse beer. It’s a name in beer circles

It’s a brewery, main location is in Charlton but they’ve been expanding (have another location on the cape and I think somewhere else)

Are you hoping to work at a big 4 accounting firm in the US after you get your masters? If so, I’d look at schools that they recruit from, and do so as inexpensively as possible. You can apply to work at the Boston office after graduation (and while pay as entry level in the big 4 isn’t that great - you won’t break $100k in Boston in audit/tax to start, maybe between $65k-$70k, as you move up and gain experience it quickly gets better).

It might - I once connected in Detroit when Obama was president/flying in to give a speech and we had to circle a bit until he cleared the airport.

Everyone is talking about this banana pudding. I talked my mom into getting some for thanksgiving (we’re spending the holiday in NYC, but I actually won’t be taking Amtrak to get there)

Reply to comment by wallet535 in AMTRAK from BOS to NY by unicynn
Yeah, it saves time if it’s on time, but if it’s not on time it’s not worth the extra money. I usually book whichever is least expensive (once or twice the Acela actually was for me)

Reply to AMTRAK from BOS to NY by unicynn
For the Boston - NYC route, the benefit to Acela is that it’s marginally faster and all seats are business class. If your booking by budget, I’d do the regional (but once I did Acela from DC to Boston cause I waited to book and that was less expensive than both the regional and flying). Assuming everything is on time, I believe the Acela only saves you 45 min-an hour

And some years we don’t get snow in February at all. Yes, there could be a snowstorm, it could be wet and gross, but if you plan appropriately it will be fine.

And I think it’s the 57 bus that runs along a lot of the B line to Kenmore Square (it’s been a long time since I’ve taken a bus in that area so I might have the wrong number)

Technically, drop off locations depend on the terminal AND time of day.
