Option 2! Option 2!

Bostonist is saying that the Green Line extension plan may not be falling apart after all. Which is frigging great news as far as I'm concerned. I want to buy a house someday, and I'll probably stay in Cambridge if I can possibly afford it. Expanding the Green Line will certainly open up a lot more area that's palatable, though, in the event that I'm too poor to afford something I really want. More likely, it'll ease off some of the price pressure into Somerville and Medford and keep things more affordable everywhere.

I hadn't seen this map of potential Green Line stops. Pretty cool. They really should work out some way to hook the Tufts and Davis stops together, though. Otherwise, that is going to be one looooong ass ride from Medford. Holy crap.
