I like in the second shot that the buildings that stood out so dominantly for years (longfellow towers, saltonstall building) are finally background filler.
It has a distinct look for better or worse. My wife visited the city for the first time and the only buildings she commented on were One Boston Place, Hancock, 33 Arch and this one.
No one claimed it was tough break for anyone, "BronsonShore"..... I'm sure 99% of people couldn't care less, but as someone who takes an interest in skylines and tall buildings, it's a missed opportunity.
Yeah, I love the density and it's really impressive how dramatic the area has changed in the last few years. That being said, kind of a bummer that 3-4 new buildings blend together and look like one giant monstrosity.
I feel that, from a skyline level, once this and the Alcott is finished it's a lot like downtown before Millenium Place. Good, solid filler but you need a standout tower with some height to break the plateau to bring it all together.
