Thankfully for the last I've avoided having to walk that stressful and ugly stretch of Martha Rd./Lomansey Way ever since the opening of the North Bank Bridge in 2012.

Is that standalone 4-story building across the street, which miraculously escaped demolition due to its "connections," still there?

I think the condo's in it are still worth combined well north $2 million.
Recently it has had a large iphone ad on the south side.

The Boston Globe did an article on that 4-story building a couple of years ago: https://www.boston.com/news/local-news/2015/08/16/bostons-last-tenement-...

I realize you're making a joke but the new project will have new garage spaces (775 according to the linked UHub article, YMMV).
