...but lose the bottle opener. The tall boys aren't that tall.

Design documents (for one proposal of several, it seems)

http://www.bostonplans.org/getattachment/6414e352-2b9c-4ded-a759-550d560dfbbf

Proposals were due on 1/10, so one hopes there will be more to come.

This is likely the proposal the City is looking for. It is the joint work of Millennium Partners (affordable housing component for Winthrop Square Garage), Asian Community Development Corporation (community buy-in), Tufts Shared Services and Corcoran Jennison -- Doubletree Hotel owner (abutters buy in).

Wow! This proposal looks really nice! But this hasn't been chosen yet...

Correct, it hasn't been chosen yet. But this particular proposal was pretty carefully curated by BPDA to deal with a lot of competing interests for the site. There may be a better one submitted, but it seems unlikely.

That's my interpretation. These are the same folks who did One Chinatown with MP as added oomph. The fix is in in a good way here.

This PNF is a work of art. It could be a coffee table book.

I know, right?! Flipping through it now... I saw Stantec was the architect of choice... just green light this thing already.

For affordable housing!! Poor people living in downtown won't need or have a car.

348' to the tip is a decent, Chinatown highrise.

looks like a half-Trinity/115 Fed.
 
Re: Parcel P-12 | Chinatown

Is Stantec the same architect that designed 319 A Street?

Also loving the set backs and how thin this building is.

The parking is for the hotel isn't it.

Tufts Medical Center routinely runs out of patient/visitor parking. Employees are not even allowed to use that garage. That was the major ask by Tufts as an abutter.
