sign o' the times

In 2000 or so, a huge cargo terminal in Watertown was heavily renovated and turned into a commercial for-rent co-lo data center. I used to drive by and see "space available" signs.

I drove by today, and watched the backhoes clearing the mountains of rubble away. That's right, they knocked the whole damn gigantic thing down to make room for some new project. There's probably about 3 acres of land there.

Wonder how much money the data center lost?

Gas prices are leveling out. Today's cruise of three stations showed they were only $.02 different. Hess on Prospect and Mobil on Main St are both $2.77, and the Exxon at Bacon and Main in $2.79.

They started milling (removing pavement) on Totten Pond Rd this morning. Seek alternate routes for a while!
