The East coasts first 4D movie theater opens in Boston

Posted on August 22, 2015 | 1 comment

Fat CatFor those of you who love going to the movies, check out the newly refurbished Showcase Cinema de Lux in Revere. It is only the second in the nation and the first on the East coast “MX4D” theater. MX4D theater allows viewers to experience major motion pictures in an exciting new way; immersing you in the action on screen via an array of carefully programmed special effects including, moving seats, bursts of water and real-life smells (that last part does sound a bit nasty but maybe you’ll enjoy it).

To learn more about the Showcase MX4D® Theatre at Showcase Cinema de Lux Revere, to view show times and purchase tickets online check out their website at, www.showcasecinemas.com.

BRA green lights large affordable residential project near North Station

Posted on August 20, 2015 | Leave a comment

affordable boston apartment MeranoLast week the BRA approved a new mixed use residential project that will be one of the city’s largest entirely affordable residences.  The project formerly “The Merano” will be located across from North Station and the Garden. It will include 239 affordable rental units, a 220 room hotel and 220-space parking garage available to both tenants and hotel guests.

The developer also has promised to make a $500,000 contribution to design and build a new park with several hundred thousand dollars dedicated to other infrastructure improvements in the West End neighborhood.  While more affordable units in Boston are needed this is great news and sounds like a wonderful opportunity for the lucky few who can score an apartment.

There is no word on when construction would begin. More details here.

Dîner en Blanc is returning to Boston on September 10th

Dîner en Blanc has been a tradition in Paris since 1988, when Francois Pasquier invited a handful of friends to meet for dinner at the Bois de Boulogne and he asked them to wear white so it would be easy to identify each another.  That dining event has grown into an international dining phenomenon, which will be returning to Boston on September 10th, but getting tickets to this event isn’t all that easy with thousands (yes you read that correctly) seeking an invite through the dinner’s Facebook page.

The event is one part dinner and one part fashion as everyone wears white from head to toe, snubbing protocol by wearing white after Labor Day.  It also looks to be quite fun, judging by the photographs. According to the Boston Herald article, there are more than 1,000 people on the waiting list, but maybe you’ll get lucky.
