Re: Longfellow Place (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End
One of the best things about these new towers in this area is that they will draw your eyes away from Longfellow Place.
Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District
Interesting that people are ripping this tower when it is in fact much better than most of the downtown towers we have already.
Shame. Of all the great projects Boston has gotten during this boom, that was the best one imo. They ought to bring it back as mixed use (office, hotel) if residential wont work.
Its not worse than 225 Franklin (I cant believe that concrete pos has fans) or 1 Federal.
1 Federal should be redone with glass (maybe dark glass) and have floors added to make it about 625-650'ish. Then it would look nice.
I like this building too. I don't think this is an necessarily an improvement.
The building that really needs a makeover is 225 Franklin Street (old State Street tower). Bleaaaach.
Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District
That industrial area where Ink Block is being built. Used to be a tight urban grid of rowhowses.
