-It was doomed from the start. Even if the proponents had been more tactful in the their approach, the weaknesses of the city would have manifested themselves.

-Mayor Walsh is politically weaker. Baker is stronger. No one else is really impacted.
-Some of the renderings were pretty. It was old school design--architecture masquerading as urban planning.
