I apologize if this has been posted before, but apparently there's a proposal to replace a 3-story office building (pictured below) with an 11-story lab.
Unfortunately, I don't know if there are any plans to preserve the facade (there absolutely should be, in my unsolicited opinion)...

The 'Capital Square' (Mass Ave & Lake St) mixed-use building was approved by the Redevelopment Board a few days ago. The version that was approved is below, with these exceptions: the arch is being removed, and the non-brick cladding will be lighter in tone. The brick will be authentic...
