Centuries of\u00a0 historic events from The Tea Party , to the ride of Paul Revere,\u00a0 the molasses disaster in the North End to the many great moments in sports history . Our dynasties\u00a0 the Celtics , Redsox .\u00a0 Patriots, and Bruins.\u00a0 One moment we sometimes forget.\u00a0 The largest public works project in the US. The Big Dig.<\/p>\n

Originally slated for completion in 1988 the dig started in 1991 estimated @ 2.8 billion\u00a0 and ended in 2007\u00a0 . Its final cost was estimated at 24.3 billion making it the most expensive highway project in US History. After federal criminal investigation , 700 leaks and one death and subsequent law suit of\u00a0 407 million dollars . The dig reduced\u00a0 traffic times by 62% from 38,200 hrs of travel to in 94-95 to 14,800 hrs in 2004-2005.<\/p>\n

My memories were navigating through the ever changing landscape of\u00a0 Boston Constantly morphing from one ways to two ways and two ways to one ways.\u00a0 As a veteran of Boston\u2019s downtown area i found that my knowledge was of no use to me . I recall driving on surface road one night totally confused\u00a0 to what side of the street\u00a0 i was on .\u00a0 As i meandered\u00a0 along\u00a0 and saw a police vehicle slowly\u00a0 creeping towards me .\u00a0 He stopped my\u00a0 vehicle\u00a0 and approached\u00a0 me. I immediately went into Lawyer mode trying to mount my best defense.<\/p>\n

He threw his hands up and says to me in his perfect Boston accent. \u201d Im not gonna give you a ticket i dont even know where im going . just get offa this thing ok\u201d I happily complied.\u00a0 \u00a0Other adventures included the hide and seek positioning and repositioning of the entrance to the airport tunnel.\u00a0 That changed practically from day to day . After\u00a0 \u00a0Ten years and\u00a0 the feeling that i was living in a wore torn country .. I endured . Now i walk along the Rose Kennedy park and go over the Leonard P Zakim bridge . Going northbound on 93 is better and getting in and out the airport via the Ted Williams tunnel\u00a0 has improved.\u00a0 \u201d If it dosen\u2019t kill us it makes us stronger\u201d. With pride i can say \u201d I Survived the Big Dig\u201d.<\/p>\n
