Re: Patriots Place ^ the other small strip is a disaster IMO. looks like somthing you'd find in nashua. If your going to build somthing in Gillette Stadium's parking lot, it can't look like your typical strip mall. The other larger part is great when your there, it feels like an outdoor mall...

Re: Patriots Place I hope i didn't already post these pics: but here is a contrast to that, some gameday photos. the line for CBS scene was massive The shops may not get many visitors when there is nothing going on [afterall, its foxboro] However, I think they succeed in the fact that...

agreed, the slanted roofs [rooves? haha] look great.

Re: Gov't Center Garage Redevelopment That's funny..I could have sworn this project was in the government center and not the north end....

Re: New tower at Aquarium parking garage. What better way to bring people to the greenway than a new "tallest in the city" type building with tons of attractions. Wow people can be dumb.

Re: New tower at Aquarium parking garage. ?It isn?t written anywhere that you shouldn?t have tall buildings in cities.? Domination. This should be printed and stapled all over Boston.

Re: Filene's sue those bastards for all they've got and use that money to rebuild the old building or make a new development here. Somehow, they were legally allowed to destroy a landmark and leave it like warzone? how the hell does this happen.

Re: New tower at Aquarium parking garage. Its actually a rectangle. [jk.]

Re: Columbus Center Ned, if you want clean air, get out of the city and move to Nova Scotia. Anyone whose living next to a major highway like the Mass Pike should expect some more air pollution/health risks.

I suppose you are referring to the hancock which looks stunning? Because the claredon to me looks like it belongs in some eastern europe skyline :(. I guess I will just never learn to love this one.

Re: Columbus Center Ned, 14,000 pages of Public Records? You read that much? Really? Even in winning, the NIMBY has lost.

^Exactly. Good towers are worthless if they don't complement eachothers. Boston's towers may be ugly, but they mesh together somehow. Speaking fo the skyline, does anyone have a shot of Boston getting slammed with the wave of fire in Knowing? [horrible movie, but cool shot]. They did a...

Re: Trans National Place (Winthrop Square) Part 2 I don't like the new design. it looks too much like a jack in a box.

By Zig zags, im referring to the shape of the brick portion when its seen from the south. Btw, another example of somthing others hate I like...the westin. Its not a lively building and it certainingly is no award winner/landmark, but it is a decent filler building IMO.

i've seen people hate on the Columbus Center, Fan Pier, Russia Wharf, IC, 111 Huntington, 45 Providence basically, every single new development in boston. And I have loved all of them [well, Fan Pier i don't love, but i don't hate it like most] Then along comes the Claredon, and a majority of...

true true. I just couldn't stop thinking about that big ugly box thing lol. Tom Montparnasse is actually a cool tower IMO, just would look better in say manhattan or chicago than the middle of paris.

paris has skyscrapers too ya know..so that picture you call the "skyline" is the equivelant of taking a picture of dorchester and calling it bostons skyline. Of course, maybe its just because paris's towers are so hideous you didnt want to scar us :P.

do all cities use factories as cruise ports? or is that just us?

Re: W Hotel Best pictures I've seen so far, even if that incomplete window is the most awkward thing I've ever seen.

doorknobs are too colorful. ruins the building.
