Man, from only like 20' away all semblance of texture is gone and it's left looking like a construction paper facade.

After living in Boston for my whole life, my wife and I recently moved to Seattle. I’m hoping that there are other forums like this one specifically for other major cities, has anyone come across anything? I did a google search but didn’t come up with much other than the skyscraperpage forums...

A good power washing or some fresh paint would go a long way.

Totally missed that one, sorry!

Here is an interesting view of the building I haven't seen posted before. It's memorial drive in Cambridge as it approaches the BU bridge, it will be quite prominent right in front of you.

I like the IDEA of this project, but this design feels really unresolved. I hope it's not the final render.

This is hot garbage.

The formwork is just poking up and visible from across the channel. It gives you an idea where it will be seen from the Seaport.

I'm not sure this location will go over well at all. It's a really popular park / dog park and basketball court.

What were the objections?

Let's see if that actually gets built per the render.

There's some really finicky looking transition details. It's too busy. Good luck detailing that.

At least it doesn't have offset windows?

That is a LOT of elevators for the size of the footprint.

I live by this house and the lack of windows, placement, size of them is really disappointing.

Parts I like, parts I hate. Oh well.

Cheaper to erect it once, rather than jack it up multiple times?

Miami on Essex

This is what happens when you let the neighborhood design your building. That said, I like it, could be better, but it's not bad.
