Boston Landing (Strider Hotel) | 180 Guest Street | Brighton

Wow, if I have the timeline right, they had foundation and pilings on May 31 and have topped out in less than 3 months. I know it's not the tallest building, but that feels like really quick work to build the core structure.

Have they announced if this is going to be a truly independent hotel or part of a larger network?

As I recall, this hotel is going to be owned by New Balance Corporate. While is not unheard of for major corporations to own hotels near or adjacent to their HQs - Oracle owned the San Mateo Marriott prior to their HQ move to Texas - I would doubt if they care to manage the hotel directly. Even if it doesn't fly a major brand flag, I would personally expect it to end up managed by a third party. If not Marriott/Hilton etc, Aimbridge, HHM, Pryamid... Hospitality management is a major industry in of itself, and even companies like Marriott are primarily in the management space - they only own and operate 52 hotels compared to the thousands that say Marriott above the doors.
 
August 30, 2025. It went up fast!

No pics coming through for me on your post, unfortunately.

I recall you've said this before and it seems you're the only one with this problem, so I think it's on your end and should hopefully resolve itself very soon?

The pics looks great. What are you trying to view them on? Phone? I'm on either a desktop or laptop, using either Firefox or Chrome. They always work. You're definitely missing out if you haven't been able to see KZ's aerials!

OK, so huh. Flickr has been going downhill for years (say it with me: ENSHITTIFICATION) and I wonder if they've enabled some sort of embedding restrictions or don't play nice with certain encryption settings any more. Hmmm
 
I like that blue a lot! Also, is there a thread for the huge developments across from this? It looks from the plan that at least 4 buildings are going over there, wondering what the timeline on those is.

Can't see the photos on either my phone or my laptop, and I'm using Chrome on both. Just another one of those cyber mysteries.
