Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District God this thing is an embarrassment. Shorter, squatter, uglier. Even the "great hall" is worse. The shape isn't even the worse part. The facade looks like it was designed by a two year old on LSD. And I don't think making it shorter will help...

Exactly. It's an icon, and to demolish it would be a travesty.

Phew Doesn't look like they are going to. Crazy they even thought that was going to get by.

I really hope they don't demolish The Superman Building. Happy to hear of a new tallest for Providence. https://www.bisnow.com/boston/news/office/consolidated-hasbro-hq-proposal-could-take-down-providences-superman-building-82608...

Yes! I wish someone would demolish one of the big fa downtown skyscrapers and replace it with several taller, skinnier ones.

YES. And try to build in some of the vacant lots surrounding the Orange Line.

Pathetic cities with nothing going for them try to build massive, one-shot edifices in the hope of making themselves look great. Sure, I would love to see a massive building in Boston, but I just want to remind everyone here how ridiculous these rust-belt/silicon prairie ego-trips are. No one...

Thank you.

Thanks for telling me. I found it weird that I couldn't find one.

Tell me if there's a thread on this, I searched and found nothing. Developer Proposing 9 Million Square Feet Of Commercial Space on old Airfield Site. Also: 4 Thousand Residences, 50 Miles Of Hiking and Biking Trails, Not even a development, or a neighboorhood, but a whole new smart city...

Beautiful.

I wish you could still find sights in Boston that looked like this-seedy, urban, cool, and beautiful in a way.

They should add direction signs pointing to Westie, Southie, The West End, and The South End.

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District I could see how that could be annoying, but it probably could work. There would already be alot of visitors at the retail portion, and they could make an elevator that didn't go to people's homes.

I was just thinking that. Centre Pompidou meets Boston City Hall.

I wouldn't mind a few more non-glass buildings on the skyline, from an aesthetic point of view.

I don't mind the concrete in between the windows-when it has something to break it up. but when you have a sheer concrete facade it is an eyesore.

Well that's when it opens. The tower will show up on the skyline sooner.

I have to disagree there. I really dislike 80s music, but I could see how that could be nostalgic/.
