Yeah I wasn't able to do it justice with my pics, but it's very cool. And there are lights that will shine vertically down each column some of which aren't lit yet. It's going to be a real statement when it's complete.

Let’s go

I'm guessing its because all the wire and pipes they need access to to finish the bridge would be covered by those final pieces of white paneling. As of now all the wiring is visible, so it seems reasonable that they will cap it off last.

What's the big concrete core going up by the Snowport going to be? Sorry if this has already been covered. Looks like a big building on the rise.

To me it looks indistinguishable from the renders. More importantly, its great for people like me who have to cross the bridge every day. But I'm still heartbroken it's not up to your expectations.

Great photos. Hopefully you're talking about the North End side. Charlestown side has a little harbor walkway underneath that's still there to the best of my recollection. This bridge is beautiful, and it's going to be the example par excellence of what good lighting can do for a structure. I...

Ya the steel frame is all the way to where it ends by the converse building. They are finishing the rods that point outwards from the frame (no idea what these things are actually called). I think this bridge is close to being finished. There's been a ton of progress lately.

I also like it. When you're in the Sullivan square area all you see is the top half and the way the facade changes as you move is cool. The new lab in this development is surprisingly visually pleasing too. With a few more buildings and a redo of Rutherford with green space this area will really...

I'm a layman but I don't understand any of this. Are you working on the project? Can you be more specific on things like "Development economics"? I always thought t stops had a very small footprint. There's even one in the old state house. What changed in the last 10 years that made a plan like...

The original render was great. The smaller buildings in the front really added depth.

I feel the same. It's an anticlimax to the whole project. There are a few buildings in seaport I'd love to copy and paste into that spot. Then some gardens, walkways. Something like the St. Regis would be nice.

I agree. Right now they're in stark contrast to their surroundings. The new, smaller version of the Sudbury that's planned should help. Even the ugly proposed lab would provide some relief. I'd love to see a few mid size buildings and lots of green space.

That's a shame because it looks like absolute shit, and parking can go underground, like it did with a similar garage for the Alcott. To ascribe any sort of historical significance to this thing is a mistake.

Agree. Especially since there's a giant parking garage right across the street that is begging to be moved underground and redeveloped. This thing is on a huge piece of land and I have no idea why it's still standing.

Looking forward to the "Commodore Tower" (175 Park Ave) as seen in the video above. Also thought the above video was a good update on 270 Park Ave.
