If you didn't live in Boston at some time during the Big Dig, then you will not appreciate the fact that it will officially be complete as 2007 ends. When I was in college from '98-'02, I thought I would never see it happen. Hmm, I guess I didn't. I moved out of Boston in November of 2004.
This is pretty awesome -
"A study by the Turnpike Authority found the Big Dig cut the average trip through Boston from 19.5 minutes to 2.8 minutes."
Here's a great article on the history of the project from The Christian Science Monitor.
