Also should have been 1 story taller to match the adjacent buildings.

Yea why not make it 1 story taller on both ends and block off those blank walls on the adjacent buildings behind? I'm sure they could've put some decent 1 bedroom or studio apartments up there.

Looks like an entry in a butter carving contest.

I think everything that's not plywood is glass. But I know what you mean. The windows are taking forever.

The glass is currently being installed.

It’s kind of pathetic we’re building two story buildings in the heart of Boston

Especially since all the adjacent buildings are taller.

They probably should have tried to get rid of the little side street right of way here first and then just developed a full size building imo. Now that the viaduct is gone the cross street extension is just an unnecessary frontage road to the greenway. This side of the greenway has that enormous parking lot, multiple different exposed tunnel roofs, and then this leftover frontage road so theres a lot of wasted space here that could go towards better use imo if it was consolidated.

Somebody with pull did not want their upper level windows blocked.

I'm sure that's why.

Not that I have anything against this project, but I really think this thread might win the award for "Most egregiously euphemistic thread title on aB"
...really?: "North End Piazza on the Greenway"
More like: "Two-Story Strip Mall Next to the Road"
(I know this is old, old news at this point, but it bugs me every time this thread pops up )

It's looking less like one every week, or maybe just a more finely sculpted butter carving.
