Over the past few years, we have seen an overwhelming influx of social media platforms, mobile tools and trends. It’s virtually impossible to go anywhere without feeling the urge to ‘like’ a café on Facebook, tweet your opinions on a nearby bar, or Instagram the delicious meal you just scarfed down (filtered, of course). In [...]

Recently, Texas A&M released its annual “Mobility Report” on traffic conditions in the nation’s 498 largest metropolitan areas. The results aren’t pretty, especially for Boston commuters. According to the study, Boston is the fifth worst area for traffic, with drivers spending an average of 53 idle hours in their cars last year. Only Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York rank worse.
As traffic jams and work days have grown longer, employees have made a reasonable commute a top priority in choosing a job. As a result, the corporate housing model of companies clustered in urban downtowns or remote office parks is changing. Today, businesses looking for office space increasingly require nearby housing and lifestyle options for employees. Consequently, municipalities that offer all-in-one mixed-use developments are more attractive to top companies as corporate headquarters.
