    Fenway Corners (Red Sox) | 1 Jersey Street | Fenway

    I think this looks excellent. Very respectful of surroundings, thoughtful, classy. As for the Citgo sign and whether you’ll be able to see it from Fenway Park, post-construction, count me among those who consider that an embarrassing/ridiculous “Boston icon.” Nothing screams “Boston” quite like...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    how right you are! my only excuse (feeble) is i think even less of the office space at winthrop is leased than at SST and i just think of it as 100% residential b/c at least many of the condos are sold.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    well... 685 fifth ave, hancock tower, vancouver house, 70 pine street -- not entirely unusual (and I expect -- and hope -- we'll be seeing more of it), but you are possibly/probably correct that this is the only such mixed-use office/residential skyscraper in Boston.

    Bulfinch Crossing | Congress Street Garage | West End

    Do you mean the squat blobs that will partially obscure the best vantagepoint of State Street? Hopefully never, ever.

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    I was meaing more that, while I'm not supertall-obsessed, having this design at significant height (900 ft? more?) and representing the pinnacle of Boston's skyline would have been stunning. I love what we have -- just imagining what it could have been in a fantasy scenario.
