Echelon Seaport | 133-135 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

I strongly agree with both of these statements. It still hurts to lose such a killer view of downtown, basically in its entirety. The price of progress.

It's really only the tenants of the World Trade Center complex that are losing their views, so not too worried about that!
 
Probably true for those photographers out there, it was a barren wasteland (with a view) to everybody else.

Yes, that was the whole point of the comment. The barren wasteland afforded a killer view! Progress wiped it away. That's what happens when all the buildings need to be as fat as possible to make up for a lack of allowable height.
 
Steel and cranes for days:

Never thought I would live to see 1MP become the bland background building it was destined to be.
 
@Pheldy34 great photo. 399 Congress and M1/M2 rising together makes it look like the entire corridor is under construction
 
Great pictures! This is the one that's going to "tie the room together".
 
Holy crap!!! You really caught the massiveness of this development, BeeLine! Lovin this project and how the whole Seaport is coming together.

That was only one third (T1 tower 1) of the project. Sunday I took more photos and have organized them T1, T2, and T3.

Tower 1 (T1) which fronts Seaport Blvd.

Beeline - thanks for the in-depth update.

Where does this project rank in size relative to others in Boston (built and under development)?

Obvi, the Pru is bigger, as is probably the Garden and the Govt Ctr garage, but this guy is pretty massive.
 
The first tower has topped out:

If I were Mayor I wouldn't waste my time with groundbreaking or topping off ceremonies for private projects.

I'd also keep my name off of all the "Welcome to [Neighborhood], City of Boston" signs and such.
