I was under the impression during the Olympics they were pushing for a “Midtown” Olympic village between South Boston and the South End over the Rail yard

But Midtown Boston is never going to happen

Maybe we need a “2019-nearing-2020 edition” thread for this comparison.

^^btw, w/ so many fun posts (above), i have an 'extra fun' question on aisle 7.
Being this is a "city" forum,
are people not allowed to post photos of city's on these threads?
Is there a limit of 0, 5, 10? just curious.
This is a photo of shrimpy/wimpy Boston taken by a skilled local photographer,
from the perspective of the [insanely walk-able] greenish area near Belmont Hill.

Tbh as far as made up neighborhood names go, I'd take midtown every time over "SoWa."

If we’re really trying to force an NYC/Boston topography comparison: Back Bay would be “midtown” (midriver) and Fenway would be “uptown” (upriver).

Anyway. None of this has to do with SF, but no SF posters or supporters have contributed yet. So whatever.
