Politics Ruin Plans For Seaport
Posted on 06/15/2007 17:45:48 | Link | Post Comment
Last week, John B. Hynes III announced plans for a $3 billion (with a "b") development in the Seaport District. Included in the plans was a new private school, presumably for the use by children of many of the renters and owners in the area.
Mayor Menino was outraged, calling it a "hare-brained idea".
"We're not going to build schools for political purposes," Menino said. "We put them where they're needed."
?
Today, Hynes blinked. He has now taken the school out of his plans.
The school was an excellent idea. The mayor should have stayed out of it.
