RIP to the Sound Museum. Spent dozens of hours there practicing and performing music. There's no way I can say I'm surprised but this is a LOT of rehearsal space that artists are losing.

Faded Brighton warehouse where musicians now practice could be replaced by, you guessed it, life-sciences labs

A developer wants to replace a two-story warehouse at 155 North Beacon St. in Brighton, now home to the Sound Museum rehersal studios across from the Tin Tin Buffet, with a four-building complex of research labs and office space. Read more.

I can remember doing an environmental remediation project there in the mid 90's when Bull Electronics was there.

They really chose a desaturated palette for the whole development. It needs a pop of color.

I remember when the new WGBH was the biggest, shiniest thing there, and it replaced an old BFI facility for trash trucks. The area has come a long way.

I’m a little disappointed by the NPC for the Hotel at Boston landing. The proposal is about half as tall is its allowed to be. I would have liked it to have been as tall as the lantera next door. In my experience Allston-Brighton can use all the hotel space we can get.

I'd have just waited to see if the market could recover before building something this sad, but I guess they have events at the athletics center that need it.

They're building the maximum number of rooms allowed.....

Agreed. A tall, slim building would be nice here.

They just couldn't help themselves and not offset the windows, could they.

Yeah, I noticed that after posting though I still think between the Lantera and Allston Yard (Stop and Shop redevelopment) it’s going to seem stubby.

This sucks. It wouldn't have cost that much more to do something even a little interesting with the paneling like the King Open School across the river.
