I remember reading the Globe about the whole controversy between the State Project Overseer, Karasiotes, and the Master Building Contractor , Bechtel. The Globe took no prisioners and lashed out at the State Agency. It made for some very interest reading back then. It is sad the Globe is no longer as mighty as it once was. I ferried them along back then from Morrisey Boulevard to all parts of the city ( Rachid , a Muslim American ITOA cab driver was then near and dead to the Globe beat reporters and hauled a lot of them around ) , and they were excellent tippers and very kind to us drivers. We got the Herald too, but the folks at the Globe had the finger on the wound. The folks from the Phoenix were nowhere close to the party, as far as I can remember.

A good half hour from the toll gates to the financial , a licensed hackney from early 90’s till 2012. Stop and go. To put into perspective , once the Ted became functional , max ten minutes.

@erik_griswold Boston Haul road did not pass by the Flower Market, which is by Albany Street on South End, at the opposite side of the I-93. The Haul Road came off I-93 Northbound , and rolled parallel to it towards the one of the Tunnel many entrances.
