New T Stop: Maverick
4:21 pm July 9th, 2010I’m still working on my project of visiting every stop on the MBTA (albeit somewhat half-heartedly, and very slowly!). Recently I visited yet another new T stop — Maverick on the blue line, in East Boston.
The Maverick stop is convenient to Piers Park, which is a waterfront park with great oceanside views of the city tucked away into this unassuming neighborhood. I went there for a picnic around sunset, so I got photos of both the daytime and nighttime views, both of which are quite picturesque!
Maverick also had a cool feature I hadn’t seen in any other T stop — a real-time display of where various trains on the line were, so you could see how long you’d have to wait. (Blurry photo included — the lit dots are train cars!)
Unrelatedly: I’ve started tracking books I read on GoodReads rather than using this blog. So on the off-chance you want to keep up with what I’m reading, that’s where it is!
