Exactly right. They have whole entire waiting areas, for Amtrak customers only, with hundreds of seats each. Their food hall also has seating for like 250. They are 'waiting areas' for the exact reason North Station implemented turnstiles. < to mitigate the non-paying loiterers >

We'll have to see how much it gets VE'd. It has the potential, with the wrong materials, to look like a bad marriage between Hub50 and Avalon NS.

I, also, go by that designation. Although, I have less desirable word for describing NYC. This is my second stint here, 2009-2016 and 2021-present, and I can assure everyone without a shadow of a doubt.. Boston and NYC are, and have been, on two completely opposite trajectories. I've never been...

geez. this whole thing.. I remember building my first crown 🙄

Well that's unfortch.

IF there's a sale of the Post Office and land, as it moves South along the water aren't there parcels there that could house an array of talls? I can't remember the height restrictions but maybe it could become a new 'high'ish spine.

C. The NSRL

With Winthrop topped, it's now astonishing the height effect from the angled crown.

I haven't but I did go back in the thread to look and saw the post about it so I'll reserve further judgment until I do :)

Do they just not want to complete the mech/crown because it's going to look way worse than the rest of the building? yeah, I'm still in that camp.

this one is good for the area, good for precedent. Getting outside developers to build here, at this height, as a catalyst will ease to future transformable BB projects.

regardless of the hate, much warranted, it's a significant change for the city in a short period with regard to density of height and filling in gaps from all angles. look at those pictures without MT and WS and it's Hartford.

I came back, again, this weekend. Before my Acela sat by the weird City Winery pop-up that no one goes to. Solid view of the top and I just don't think this thing is being lit up. In between the ridges is just a gray material that doesn't look like a light covering. Pretty sure we are effed on...

I actually thought the arches had less of a chance than the tower.

I'm just like.. kind of confused. We have this incredible FernGully like 100 feet away in the Greenway that has set the tone for amassing diverse horticulture in city space. Then we look at taking all bricks out which was a sick idea but then we instead re-brick, take four out at a time...

Above grade it's 709' asl. Anyone know what MT is? Glass facading pretty much inundates the tall and super tall market everywhere now, in every city in the country. If you look at the tallest across the board, everything new is predominantly glass.. everywhere 🤷🏽‍♂️ Not all, to avoid a series...

The agony that comes with living in Manhattan these days allows duality to continue to heighten my already immense appreciation for Boston. Great to be back, and it was good to be at Fenway again. This music hall looked really sharp in person. They did a really solid job tying it in without...

Grr. Not the best aspect of tower as I suspected, imo.

Regardless of height, from grade, or actual blah. MT from almost all angles sub the 93S quadrant, LOOKS not just taller but considerably from many.
