Anyone know if the other residential building is still being built?

Not a big fan of the shorter tower, but it will be such a huge improvement to the neighborhood and long overdue. Please start construction soon please!

You would never have been able to build something of substantial height at that location right across from the Public Garden.

Agree about that. Miss the Top Of The Hub and JH Observation area. There used to be one in the old Hancock building as well before the tower was open. At least we still have Custom House deck that few people know about.

Why would you think it would ever be accessible to the public even if it were not Bain? Can’t think of many office building's upper floors are open to the public. People pay enormous amounts of money to have office spaces in these buildings and do not want outsiders entering and wandering around...

The MGH building will be much taller, so much of the Hotel will be blocked from many angles. Agree on One Post Office. Should have never been turned to another glass box.

Have only eaten at the On Deck Burger Bar. Waited about a half hour for just an ok burger. Many of the restaurants there quite pricey.

I might be in the minority, but I think the new building is pretty decent looking by the renderings. Hope it turns out well. That entire block has been so dead for so long.

Probably the only way it will get any attention from City Hall is to build more bike lanes.

It can clearly be seen from that Rozzie view.

There are reasons why one must travel on a flight originating in New York. The train is not ideal to transfer on with luggage and would cost a person many extra costs. If feeder flights to New York were not necessary, they would have been discontinued long ago.

Many people often take international flights out of JFK or EWR for routes that Logan does not service. That Boston New York route is important. It is not the way it once was with shuttles. Those days are over and the train more efficient if you want to take your chances with Amtrak.

Why are there open spaces at the top of the JHT? Aren’t they usually covered!

My condo overlooks the new version of the building and it is such a much more pleasant view than the old hulk was. Waited a long time for this renovation.

Stranger things have certainly happened, and will probably continue to happen the way things are going. 😀👍🏼

They were scouting a Bloomingdale’s location in the Back Bay a number of years ago, but finally seemed to give up the idea. Don’t think it would work in that area if they didn’t open elsewhere in the city. Other options you mentioned are possible. We will have to see what happens.

Or maybe the space will just remain vacant.

Considering the declining state of the Frowntown Crossing area, wonder how much longer the life span of their store there will be?

Does that mean they will still be constructed?

What ever happened to the other towers that were planned at Back Bay Station? Never heard much about them after the initial proposal.
