I'm hoping that when it's 100 percent complete, with all glass, "trim," balconies, lighting, etc. that I'll feel differently, but I really dislike this tower. It seems most feel it's sort of "meh" filler type stuff that's neither amazing nor offensive and I hope that I ultimately have that take. I'm not banking on it, though. This is straight-up fugly and, while something similar 1/5 the height squirreled away off of 128 in Waltham or something wouldn't really have an impact, at this scale and at this entryway to the city, Avalon straight-up sucks. It's not as offensive as 1 Fed or Mass Ave Towers b/c... what? They're "just" ugly boxes, whereas this is two ugly boxes squished together, with a (slightly) angled roof that will be lit up, and may have better street interaction? I'm just surprised that this aggressively bland and cheap-looking building's getting such a free pass when other developments which seem way less obtrusively negative get shredded by folks on this forum.
