At least a septic design doesn’t constrain the number of bathrooms you have in a house, /s

We have septic and having come from a house with sewer I miss it the most. I like the idea of crap leaving the area vs. sitting in my back yard.

Boston’s street traffic is compounded by the streets matching the contours of the original waters edge and then the harbor/rivers subsequently filled in and more streets added. On top of that, Boston is made up of annexed towns that each have their own street layout now combined into one city.

The highway system in Mass is half-assed. There should be at least 3 more highways going into/through Boston (Rt2/US 3, I-95, I-695). Not saying they should have been built but the current highways were designed with more in mind.

When they converted the highway funds to transit, The extension of the Red and Orange lines in the 70/80s could have helped, but again the effort was half assed. The red line extension stopped at Alewife instead of going out to Lexington and the Orange line stopped at Forest hills/Oak Grove instead of 128 Canton and Reading respectively.

We had a foster for 3 months. It has probably slowed down as people return to work in the office. Potential adopters have probably decreased In availability. On top of that , potential adopters had already reached their personal limit of two dogs in the home. That was a common response I received in that people did not want to take any in more dogs.
