    Photo of the Day, Boston Style: Part III

    Can't help you, but there are two shots from the roof of Seaport Place (formerly the World Trade Center complex) nearby. Check out the "World Class Offices" thumbnails - there is one dusk image looking towards downtown, and a daytime shot looking towards the ICA/harbor...

    Atlantic Wharf (née Russia Wharf) | Atlantic Ave | Waterfront

    Re: Atlantic Wharf (formerly Russia Wharf) I've been working on this project... really enjoying the way the Intercontinental works with the building. When this is finalized, I think we're going to really come to enjoy this building.

    Hancock of the day...

    BTW - we did this to promote the LEED Gold accreditation the Hancock Tower just achieved, I thought it was worth passing on.

    Hancock of the day...

    We took several shots from One Exeter into the evening - great spot for that view. Unfortunately we did NOT do the website for the tower, Normandy was under contract with another firm prior to hiring us to handle all the marketing, but the website has all of the photography from our various...

    The Clarendon

    The One Back Bay (luxury apts) entrance is on Clarendon Street. The Clarendon entrance is not on Clarendon Street, it's on Stuart Street. Weird, but neat.

    You ever imagine what would happen if Donald Trump bought the Hancock Tower? (original photo is copyright John Horner)

    The New England Life Building was an isolated, dead block on Newbury Street used for decades as a single-tenant office building. Its rebirth as a mixed-use, multi-tenant property demanded a new name. Naming properties is a really neat thing... it often irritates certain members of the public...

    Aw... you're not trying to get me into trouble with my client are you? Three owners ago, the observation deck was closed. Leases signed by previous landlords are not breakable. Those upper floors are full of smaller companies with trophy office space - I doubt they would be happily or easily...

    What observation deck? I think you're thinking of the Pru.

    That being said, we're the group responsible for renaming lots of places throughout Boston and I wouldn't think twice about renaming the Hancock under certain circumstances (not today's circumstances, the name fits it just fine)... but sometimes it's very important to rename (as we recommended...

    Hi Ron - I work for the branding company that helped re-position the John Hancock Tower for the new owners. As I understand it (but I don't speak for the building) there are ironclad legal agreements in place from when the building first sold to Beacon that it must be called "the John Hancock...

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    Re: New tower at Christian Science Church Plaza Did anybody read that BRA PDF??? They are going to cut the Reflecting Pool in half, make it smaller, and pave over it. Seems like they are making problems that don't exist. Since when is the reflecting pool a "barrier" to enter the church?

    The Condo Project Death pool: Who is next on the Auction Block?

    For an urban high-rise, 45 Province has very little physical "presence". But that's just a part of it's problem. The W Hotel will benefit from very strong marketing and branding - it has a clearly defined value proposition. It's still in a tough area I think for the empty nester crowd, which...

    Swampass2: I don't know if you're a pro photographer or not, but message me if you would be interested in allowing us to use your first image for the Hancock Tower's marketing materials.

    Hancock of the day...

    Thanks - I'll be sure to post any more that I get next week. Also, once I see the professional photographer's shots, I'll ask him about posting some here (his should be truly outstanding compared to mine) Standing on the roof really made the tower's marketing line feel very appropriate...
