HUB History - Our Favorite Stories from Boston History

106 years ago this week, a terrible accident took place within sight of South Station. November 7, 1916 was election day in Boston, but it was an otherwise completely ordinary autumn afternoon for the passengers who packed themselves into streetcar number 393 of the Boston Elevated Railway for their evening commute through South Boston to South Station and Downtown Crossing. The everyday monotony of the trip home was shattered in an instant, when the streetcar crashed through the closed gates of the Summer Street bridge and plunged through the open drawbridge and into the dark and frigid water below. How many could be saved, and how many would have to perish for this evening to be remembered as Boston's greatest moment of tragedy for a generation?

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: EAGxBoston: Updates and Info from the Organizing Team, published by Kaleem on March 11, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. TLDR: All you need to know about EAGxBoston - It's going to be awesome ! Also: If you would like to nominate a friend or colleague to present at EAGxBoston, or have presented at an EAG(x) before and would like to do so at EAGxBoston, please email us at boston@eaglobalx.org (edit: the email address above only got corrected at 1pm EST on the 11th of March - if you were trying to email us before that, we apologize and kindly ask you to resend your email to the corrected address) Intro EAGxBoston will be taking place from 6pm on Friday the 1st of April until 8pm on Sunday the 3rd of April. We're very excited about how big, exciting, and high quality this conference is shaping up to be—we are prepared to welcome up to 1,000 attendees and it's looking possible that we'll actually be doing that. If this is your first time attending an EA conference (or even if you have attended one before but perhaps didn't take preparation seriously) we suggest reading these excellent posts about how to get ready for an EA conference. We're also still eager to expand our team of pre-event and on-the-day volunteers (it'll be fun and impactful) ! There are lots of other ways to engage with other attendees before the event: there is an #eagxboston-2022 channel on the Groups Slack, there is this WhatsApp group, there are EA Facebook pages, and the Swapcard app (launching soon!). The applications for EAGxBoston close on the 21st of March. Dates and times In case you missed this somehow, the conference is happening from the 1st to 3rd of April 2022. We hope to make the detailed schedule of sessions at the conference available soon, through the Swapcard app. In the meantime, we can tell you generally that there will be an opening reception and career fair/internship fair/academic program fair from 6-9pm on the 1st of April, and that the conference will be open from 8am-8pm on the 2nd and 3rd, but we will try to have the majority of programming fall between 10am and 6pm. Location The conference will be happening at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center (BCEC) located at 415 Summer St, Boston, MA 02210, in Boston's Seaport District. There are multiple ways to get to the venue: You can use the MBTA (Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority)'s Red Line or Silver Line, or the 4, 7, or 11 bus, depending where you are starting from. If you're using the red line, South Station is the closest station to BCEC (~10min / ~1.1km/ ~0.7mile walk). Broadway station is also close (~12min / ~1.4km / ~0.9mile walk). If you use the silver line, the SL1, SL2, SL3, and SLW all stop right next to BCEC. Venue info If you've looked at BCEC online or via maps, you'd have noticed that it's basically the size of a small airport. We will be using the entirety of one side of the second floor—that is to say, we have loads of space. In addition to the massive amount of meeting (and eating) space, you can also walk around the rest of the interior of BCEC, or around its exterior perimeter. What there'll be in the venue Coat check Quiet space 2 large one-on-one spaces with >100 2-person tables General session space Dining space for ~800 people at a time 7 ~60 person workshop/meeting spaces First aid Security at the entrances What we recommend you bring with you Refillable water bottle Rain jacket/umbrella Laptop/notebook Laptop and phone chargers Things to help you de-stress or relax during off time, such as a book or headphones or an eye mask if you want to take a nap Necessary medications Covid policy We will not mandate the wearing of masks.

The first winter storm of the season is wreaking havoc on planes, trains, ferries and cars across New England. A commuter rail coach car detached while leaving South Station yesterday morning during rush hour with passengers on board. A Boston Harbor ferry tried to make the trip across at the beginning of the storm when high winds and waves sent both chairs and people flying across the decks while a group of passengers at Logan airport were stuck in a waiting to board holding pattern for over 15 hours. How did you weather the storm?

This week Kevin and Kornflake are joined by special guest Ed, from The Sponge Awareness Foundation! But Ed is not just the other half of Kevin's old comedy band. Ed is also a train expert, and today we're talking trains. HEY, WAIT, COME BACK. This is The Flopcast, so specifically we're talking about trains from old movies, TV shows, and cartoons! Anyone else remember the short-lived 1979 show Supertrain? (It was Love Boat on a train, essentially. We miss it terribly.) Can you name the movies that had Jack Lemmon and Jon Cryer racing through Boston's South Station, just like Kevin and Ed did when being chased by screaming Sponge Awareness fans? Want even more details about that train scene in our favorite obscure summer camp show, High Feather? Ed has tracked down some fascinating facts about all this and much more. It's scary and fun. (Mostly scary. Happy Halloween.) Also: A Super Megafest preview and World Numbat Day, both of which we somehow make all about trains. Why, we might even keep the train talk going next week. You've been warned.

Patrick Sullivan, executive director of the Seaport TMA, estimates 4,000 people on a typical weekday come into North Station and then take shuttles to the congested Seaport District. He said his organization hopes to eliminate a lot of that vehicle traffic by launching a water shuttle between Lovejoy Wharf and the South Boston waterfront this summer. Test runs showed the trip would take about 13 minutes. Sullivan, participating in the Codcast with James Aloisi and Marc Ebuna of TransitMatters, said Silver Line service from South Station to the Seaport District is at capacity most weekday mornings, but there are no plans to expand the 32-bus fleet. The three discussed ways to boost capacity by creating dedicated lanes or adjusting traffic signals to speed up the buses.

The panel is back for a post-election show crush-loaded with over an hour of the latest transportation news and analysis, this time joined by the Walking Bostonian (Matthew Danish) to explain how the theory of induced (travel) demand applies to roads and transit in Boston. We learn about everything from our most frustrating transit line (hint: it's green) to efforts to re imagine a boulevard of death (Commonwealth Ave in Allston & Brighton) to an entirely new neighborhood about to be created in Allston -- if we get it right. November's show would not be complete without a recap of the election including the repeal of gas tax indexing, speculation on transit's future under Governor Charlie Baker and how we might build on the legacy of the late Mayor Menino. We also discussed: making Commonwealth Ave (Allston/Brighton) safe for people; Mass Pike straightening and the future West Station; restoration of some weekend commuter rail service; the Fairmount Line; South Station expansion and the North-South rail link; thinking about Hubway as part of the public transportation network; a lazy bike safety report; the Lynn ferry experiment; and potential transit solutions for the Seaport District.
