Back Bay Garage Tower | Dartmouth and Stuart | Back Bay

I believe that for a skyline to stand out it simply needs to be varied (though it can be done at night with creative lighting). I've had to do a job in Houston for the past year, and I still, when driving into the downtown, have no real reference point to go by. Minute Maid Park (Astros) and its fun logo on the east side gives one to a point, but that is a sports stadium. Houston has the most uniform and uninspiring and mood depressing collection of hi-rises that I think I've seen across the bigger cities in the U.S., and I've been to nearly all of them. I'm open to more of these stacked buildings, or anything different with this matter. It's why Manhattan is so exciting--assortments, like boxes of Japanese confections. I always know where I am in NY, and gems like the "Jenga Building" and the tetrahedron shaped "Big Building" still get me going.
 
Do they need another lease for the resi buildings? Is this the DOT approval for everything?
