From 11:45 AM to 1:45 PM the Boylston Street location for Sweetgreen is mobbed.  My office is a ½-block away, so I frequently walk past their location and see the line out the door for those crazed salad fans.  Yes, I too am a fan and appreciate fresh food served quickly for a competitive price.  The Seaport location will attract a following that no doubt will see similar long lines out the door.  Enjoy!

According to a report on the Boston Business Journal, “located at 372 Congress St., the 1,655-square-foot eatery joins the neighborhood of local firms Life is good, Rue La La, and Zipcar….Sweetgreen says it prides itself on preparing foods from scratch on location, not from a commissary, using ingredients from local farms that are prepared and cooked daily.”

Transportation is critical for any city to grow and prosper, and Boston is no different.  On March 22nd, the Government Center T Stop closed for two years for a major overhaul.  While this is a challenge for commuters during that time, the outcome stands to offer passengers a new gateway to Government Center.

From bisnow.com, speaking with MassDOT secretary Richard Davey:

“When construction is completed in three years, the universally accessible Government Center station will have a sleek, steel entrance with landscaping and will take riders to Logan Airport…It will also have new lobbies, elevators, fare collection, security, finishes, lighting, emergency exits, and more retail space.”

Additional information on the Govt. Center station overhaul is available on bisnow.
