Re: The Point (Boylston/Brookline) If I can remember right, Jamaicaway Tower is 320 ft and kz1000ps mentioned that Blackfan is 298 ft. This should stick out like a sore thumb and will be that tallest building between the Christian Science Center and Springfield (from Mass. to NNE). Also...

13 is a good number! Hopefully I will get some time in August to come down there to find out what the actual height is. Those records are someplace!

Re: The Point (Boylston/Brookline) Just uploaded this to Emporis. It should be available for viewing next week. After looking at the renderings on page 9, I guesstimated the height, with mechanicals, to be 367 ft.

Thanks for the links. So far this is what I found: On the Skyscraperpage it is listed as 357 ft. (antenna) and 30 floors. On Emporis it is listed as 356.96 ft to the tip and estimate full height is 367.2 feet, with 30 floors. Wikipedia has it as 29 floors, no height. MIT Campus Planning Book...

Great pics Corey! Once again, RIP Waterview.

What is the exact height of Eastgate Student Housing in Cambridge? I've looked through MIT and CDD records online and the only height I've seen is 270' (not including antenna). I'm working on improving the following pages below...

I can help out on the Wikipedia and Emporis side of the house. Just feed me the info with reliable references. Some of my works or works I've improved: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Massachusetts,_exclusive_of_Boston...

Good update Corey! I liked how you put links to the building websites along with your photos. Good to see the projects moving right along. On another note, does anyone remember the design competition that happened last year for an area in the Oldport (across the street from the new Hyatt)...

Re: Volpe Transportation Center Development Cambridge I thought the tallest building in Cambridge was the Green Building at 295 ft (minus the 17 foot radar dome)? I was tracking that Eastgate Student Housing was only 270 ft, minus the tower on top.

Yeah, when does Monroeville get started?

Nice design, like the size. Lets hope it stays that way. Edit: Hopefully the people in the tall building next door don't bitch about losing their views (like in the case when residents of the Back Bay Tower complained about their views when a 12 story building was proposed)

I'm thinking about reserving a parking spot on the top floor of the soon-to-be-built Bayside parking garage. I'll have the best views in the neighborhood!!!

Ha! Too funny! Once again the tallest building in the immediate area is a parking garage! This trend is for real now! (Old Port parking garage, eastern waterfront parking garage)

Check 'em out! Listed below are links that I've improved over the last few weeks: Outside of Boston, in the state of Massachusetts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Massachusetts_(Outside_of_Boston_city_limits) Cambridge...

Doesn't look too bad. Build a few more of these in roughly the same area, and then eventually we can see some 5-6 story proposals springin' up too.

The Portland page has been updated ^ (thank you Portlander). If you have any inputs, especially for Wikipedia or Emporis (I edit both), please let me know. I'm also working on these two pages: Cambridge, Massachusetts (200+ft)...

Got it. Thank you! I'm adding a proposed but not built section too. Hopefully this will not bring us all to tears!

Not sure if you guys check out Wikipedia too much, but I just added a "List of tallest buildings and structures in Portland, Maine" on the Portland, Maine page under "Notable Buildings". Check it out and let me know if it needs to be tweaked. Most of my references are from Emporis.com...

Ames Street Residences made it into wikipedia. Is there any status on this development (go/nogo?). The last thing I read was that the city was nudging for this to go up to 300ft. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_and_structures_in_Cambridge,_Massachusetts
