Some choices were made here. I wonder if that's real wood that will weather (i am hoping yes).

I am v late to this discussion but think this is an interesting one. I think the distinction here is that conversions didn’t happen in the golden days of the 2010s because the office and lab market were also strong, thus demand could compete with residential and or the gap in value wasn’t so...

Its sort of giving Amsterdam waterfront along the Ij. Edit: this got me thinking, and talk about train station goals though. Amsterdam Centraal makes South Station look, well they are hardly comparable in terms of service but still. Honestly, not a bad idea to think about WWDD, what would...

The finishing touches really brought this project to life for me. I like it.

The art on these conex boxes which are also temp fencing is brilliant.

It's really not cheaper than conventional (at least yet) though clearly better from a worker comfort and safety standpoint and reduces construction waste. It has the promise of reducing construction time but at the expense of longer design times, and when a building takes longer to permit and...

It's giving early 2000s background building. More density would have been nice in this location, but I don't hate it.

When your billing rates exceed $800/hour why have quite nice when you can have wicked nice. Also, weren't they sort of spread out across a few buildings?

Apparently, you all are hungry. That said, I am here for the Londonization of new buildings monikers, but I guess that requires more than just different colored boxes :/

Its cool, but I feel like they are missing the hat trick with the glass on the recessed part in the middle. Maybe there is still film on it but that greenish color isn't my favor and it is also just a little too much glass... would have been nice to have a contrasting texture. Still a small...

I think this render is attempting to show morning sun, the water isn't due north of the park. I am assuming their model is using an actual sun path and followed the other shadow lines. Any in any case, I think its very reasonable to be pro-development but also pro-accurate representation. It...

"Forgot" the shadow though... so cozy.

It doesn't mean they will definitely going to be built, and certainly doesn't mean it will happen in a reasonable timeline. The Back Bay garage development is Boston Properties so I strongly expect those will get built eventually but market conditions, construction costs and rents/demand, will...

^I am pretty sure its not all been cleared up, there is still combine storm water and sewer lines which in heavy rain overflow to the Charles which is why you cant swim in the Charles unless it hasn't rained in a while to let bacteria levels drop. That said, I am sure its improved since the 70s...

^ I am pretty sure following the years long hole in DTX the city requires developers to provide an bond for demo work such that if they fail to complete it the city, in theory, has sufficient money on hand to complete the work itself. Whether that would ever happen is a different story.

^ I feel like we are being edged.

Not to be that guy, but I wish this was what the building silhouette looked like.

I am by no means qualified to ID mountains at a distance but I took a stab at it nonetheless, anyone else have insights on what's what here?

:confused: I sort of like the base concept but think this proposal is lacking an elegance to make it work. Im thinking the Dresden Museum of Military History as a really beautiful example of using different material and form to create interest and tell a story. My issues here are (1) poor...

Ill take the under on that. I bet it comes down sooner than other properties, namely rental properties. These are condos and that sign is going to inhibit sales by obstructing views and I doubt its going to sell many units on its own.
