The Boston Flower and Garden Show, which opened on Wednesday without any Mass. Horticultural Society staff or volunteers, will close tonight at 6 pm. It will not reopen for the scheduled final two days this weekend.

Anyone who bought a ticket in advance, but who has not yet attended the show, will receive a refund.

The folks at Conventures have a bird's eye view of the city snow farm rapidly rising in the seaport area - the snow mounds are up to 20 feet high now.

The Boston Globe reports on the new Seaport Square development that's now approved to move forward. The project will include 832 apartments (from from 365-square-foot studios to 1,335-square-foot three bedrooms), 30 new shops & restaurants, 775 parking spaces, a 17,000 square foot park and a bowling ally.

96 units will be designated as affordable housing, but whether or not those residents can afford a membership at the new Equinox gym is up for debate.
