I used to live right down the street from GBH and New Balance (I'm at the factory store all the time!) and I used to work at GBH, before they moved to that location! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209460 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 21:11:50 +0000 rachiecakes 209460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>so many Boston Bees, I work on the same street as WGBH &amp; New Balance.<br /> I live next to Target :)</p> <p>@mrs. wagon: we're at your work all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209401 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 20:02:13 +0000 bpcmarj 209401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work a block away from Plymouth rock :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209392 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 19:50:10 +0000 hellobeeboston 209392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work right in Harvard Square in Cambridge - next to Harvard....

But its in the middle of nowhere, so I can walk in the woods if I want...but can't go shopping on my lunch break. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209246 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 18:22:53 +0000 MamaMoose 209246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to work on wall street with tons of stuff within walking distance. Now I'm in Nashville and I'm not in the downtown area so there is only Maggianos that I can walk to. I hate having to get in my car to get lunch!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209225 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 18:00:27 +0000 mrskc 209225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I look out my office window to farmland... nothing exciting there. I get the occasional goat sound to go with it. No exciting shopping around either. Pretty boring. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209202 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 17:13:39 +0000 oliviaoblivia 209202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The street where I work is the "most filmed" in Toronto. There is something filmed there just about every month. It makes it interesting looking for celebrities. Haven't spotted anyone but the mom from the Cosby Show yet.</p> <p>Other than that, I work near a cemetery. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209198 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 17:08:24 +0000 banana 209198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work a few miles away from an AWESOME outdoor mall. It's definitely hard to resist going there every day during my lunch break! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209183 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:54:34 +0000 mrs. bird 209183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: oooo I love the MFA! (oh my goodness, iPhone just auto corrected that to MDMA, that would have been sooooo awkward if I hadn't noticed!! Haha!!) that must be such a fun place to work! </p> <p>I work in a residential area, not very exciting:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209150 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:23:33 +0000 erwoo 209150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to work in downtown San Francisco. Loved it. Pretty much can walk out and go shopping and eat or just walk to the pier and enjoy views of the two bridges (Golden Gate and Bay Bridge). I sure miss that a lot. Now, I'm a SAHM and take care of two boys under 3. :) Not complaining b/c I also live near good shopping as well. Although, most of my shopping consists of buying for my oldest since all of his stuff gets passed down to his little brother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209139 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:16:23 +0000 meaganceleste 209139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The closest thing to where I work is the American Airlines Center where the Mavericks and Stars play, but we rarely go to games or anything there. Only hockey when the Red Wings are in town.</p> <p>I used to work in the building that joins on to Marie Gabrielle, a popular Weddingbee wedding location (Mrs. Snapdragon and Mrs. FroYo, Mrs. Plum and Mrs. Apple all got married there). Our current building is just across the street. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-209138 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:15:10 +0000 mrs. wagon 209138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pipers Mommy: yup! :-) let me know if you ever want to visit! It's a great place to bring the LOs! They have playdates every month.. Check out the website :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208957 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 13:35:39 +0000 Pipers Mommy 208957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: MFA? love it there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208949 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 13:33:16 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 208949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work in a big hospital complex. A whole bunch of nothing but hospital in walking distance :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208945 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 13:31:13 +0000 LuLu Mom 208945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I quick drive gets me to a grocery store, a Gordman's, and a Famous Footwear but that's it. I usually just sit in my car and listen to the 90s at Noon (favorite time of day!) and read my book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208868 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:50:00 +0000 Andrea 208868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to always work by lots of shopping when I worked in Manhattan and London. I always killed time during lunch by shopping/window shopping. Now I just work from home. :-)</p> <p>ETA - Oh you know what was also cool about NYC... it was to see movie/TV shoots and celebrities while on your lunch break. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208867 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:49:13 +0000 Shutterbug 208867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work across the street from a big mall, and there are tons of other shopping plazas within a 3 minute drive from here as well. Also, they're renovating my office park into a mixed-use space with some high end restaurants and shops, so that's fun. I do most of my errands during lunch, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208860 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:44:58 +0000 Alivoo01 208860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: It is, but I feel a little awkward window shopping in there since I have zero intentions on making a purchase! At my previous job, I worked across the street from the Galleria. I liked that better!</p> <p>@mrs. wagon: That is pretty cool!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208801 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:21:56 +0000 mrs. wagon 208801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work IN a cool place!! In an art museum. One of the largest and best in the country! </p> <p>There's not too much in close walking distance (we are across the street from a college campus so there are a few quick eating places nearby) but the Boston Fenway area is about a 10 minute walk away and there's lots of cool little places to eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208795 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:20:24 +0000 MrsBrewer 208795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work right next to the dump :-( So since it has been in the 90's everyday...it sure smells wonderful outside :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208789 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:16:36 +0000 heffalump 208789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a sahm.

It's fun to be seconds away from good shopping and lots of action, but sometimes it drives me crazy to fight through a high school field trip to get some lunch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208768 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:03:27 +0000 MrsTiz 208768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work next to a towing company and some woods :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-work-near-any-cool-places#post-208766 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 12:02:05 +0000 DillonLion 208766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work next to the town that has more restaurants per capita than anywhere else in the world.
