Apparently MassDOT had known this location to be dangerous for at least 6-7 years.

Here are a couple recent views of the Neponset River at Lower Mills / Milton Village, a short distance from the Neponset River Greenway Railtrail.

We've got the town of #MiltonMa being sued by #Massachusetts and #HurricaneMilton will be hitting the #SoutheastUS soon. Not a good time to be #Milton either way.
"When housing is so scarce that it slips out of reach of most people in the area, what is a community's responsibility to help? Should state government intervene, and if so, how far should it go?"

Google Earth imagery of Buck Hill from June 3rd, 2024.
This photo is quite remarkable in that it clearly shows the remnants of the Buck Hill fire that occurred on April 27th, 2024, about five weeks prior. North is to the left. I orientated the image such that The Skyline Trail runs from top to bottom. One can clearly see that the fire devastated the north side of the hill. It seems to have burned right up to the Skyline trail and then somehow stopped. Did this happen because firefighting crews were able to get up that trail and establish a barrier? Or was it simply a case where the fire could not jump the trail, which is fairly wide? This photo also shows how lightly forested the top of Buck Hill actually is.

The Blue Hill Observatory and Science Center on the summit of Great Blue Hill in Milton MA photographed from Buck Hill.
Well, of course! At only 1.75 miles away, an elevation of 633ft, and the huge communication tower, this is perhaps the easiest target to spot from Buck Hill and can be seen from all over eastern Massachusetts.
The weather observatory is the oldest continuously operated station in North America. If you have the opportunity to take a tour, I highly recommend it! I am hoping to do the tour again soon!

The Rainbow Swash photographed from Buck Hill.
The iconic Rainbow Swash art mural painted on the side of a natural gas storage tank is an easy target to view from Buck Hill. It is right off of the I-93 Southeast Expressway. Apparently, the current one is not the original. The original was painted in 1971 and was replaced with this reproduction in 1992. This is the only one I have known.
Looking in this general direction the photos are dense with notable sites. Even in this tight crop of the Swash, there are so many notable details.
Starting at the top... The large building that spans the top of the photo is the Boston Design Center, 1 Design Center Place, South Boston. I will likely circle back to this building at some point and give it a post of its own.
Directly behind the Swash is the Integrated Sciences Complex UMass Boston, 100 Morrissey Blvd, Boston.
Just under and in-front of the Swash is the newly constructed Imprint Apartments, 780 Morrissey Blvd, Dorchester. I could see the construction on Google imagery, but it took me a while to identify this by name.
In front of the apartment complex are two churches. The more prominent has a large brick bell tower, which is St Ann’s Parish, 251 Neponset Ave, Dorchester. Just in front of that we can spy the tops of the two steeples of St Brendan Church, 589 Gallivan Blvd, Dorchester. It turns out that both of these churches are part of the St Martin de Porres Parish.
Lastly, the lone white house in the bottom right, I have identified as 290 Adams St, Milton MA.

If you don't support up-zoning your town, you don't want your kids to live near you, MILTON. "Crossley saw how ever-increasing housing prices and a shortage of affordable rental units were transforming the city, so that many who grew up there — including her children — couldn’t afford to move back." #mapoli #boston #newtonma #miltonma https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/02/08/business/newton-housing-city-council-deborah-crossley/
