Two Years and Still Going Strong

I can't believe it's already been two years since Boston to a T was founded.

Boston to a T was started in a dorm room at Suffolk University two years ago yesterday. We  began as a blog that showcased to college students what it was like to live in the heart of Boston. Over the past two years however, we have transformed into a platform dedicated to informing the public about the inner workings of Boston's public transportation system.

First, we would truly like to thank you for reading and following Boston to a T. If you read us on a daily basis, follow us on Twitter, or just accidentally stumbled upon the page we thank you for supporting us over the past two years.

For me, creating this blog has not only helped me strive to become a better journalist, but it has also instilled in me a love for urban development and planning, hospitality, and of course transportation.

Over the past two years we have posted over 120 different articles. They have ranged from feature stories, to field trips, and even some history posts. Social media has also been a large part of Boston to a T's success. Through our  twitter, Facebook page, and Youtube accounts, we have been able to give our followers a different perspective on things happening around the city.

We have also been able to meet and speak with the MBTA  CFO Jonathan Davis, MassDOT Secretary Richard Davey, MBCR General Manager Hugh Kiley and many other notable members of the Boston community. 

Boston to a T was founded on the platform of informing the public. We made it our mission to inform the people of  Boston, and its outlying suburbs, about the happenings around the city and information about the MBTA. 

As we move forward, we will continue to look for even more ways to help bring information to Boston residents and commuters alike. We are committed to using this blog and other social media platforms to put pressure on the MBTA and other Boston organizations to be more transparent.

Happy Commuting, Happy Reading, and of course THANK YOU for supporting Boston to a T!

South Station Expansion Project

Governor Deval Patrick wants to bring South Station back to its former glory with an $850 million expansion project. The expansion has become a prominent part of his multi-billion dollar transportation plan. 
The project would include demolishing the United States Postal Service sorting facility adjacent to South Station. This would free up space to add 7 more tracks to the 13 that are currently serving the station. 
Having a total of 20 tracks serving the station would allow for faster and more reliable rail travel. 
Check out our video package about the project below:

Boston to a T is Back!

It's been almost three months since I have posted here on Boston to a T, but I'm finally back!

I would first like to apologize to all of my loyal readers. The past three months have truly been very busy ones for me. I accepted a new job, I was involved in a musical production at my school, and was sill trying to focus on all of my school work. During this time, Boston to a T was unfortunately put on the back burner.

Now that I finally have some free time in my life, it's time to bring Boston to a T back to life.

I have a long list of posts that I am vigorously working to get posted in the weeks to come, so please stay tuned. As always I am always looking for guest contributors as well as ideas for different topics you would like me to cover.

For more updates and other fun posts be sure to follow us on Twitter and "like" our Facebook page.

Best,
