Re: Longfellow Place (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End
Also - I hereby proclaim that it is finally time to do something interesting with the last tenement.
Like put it in a giant vitrine with some interpretive signs and call it the new wing of the West End museum. Or throw a geodesic nutsack around it like at Amazon's HQ in Seattle and make it an oversized folly in a new a garden-under-glass. Or make it the headhouse of a new beergarden. Or turn it into the monkeyhouse for a new downtown micro-branch of Zoo NewEngland. Or make it part of a new West End Library branch. (...these are clearly not mutually-exclusive visions...).
Because now that its going to be surrounded by interesting new shit, there are really interesting urban-space and design things that can be done with it that would be much more awesome than its current role as a masonry billboard easel.
