I went to an event at the W Hotel in the Foshay Tower. It is like Minneapolis' version of the Custom House Tower. It had a nice view of our handful of tall buildings. IDS Center and Wells Fargo Center. I like the WF Center. New-ish, but has a lot of great attention to detail, plus cool...

The background in the renders looks more like Westborough than Everett. That aside, I love what Everett is doing, they are really crushing it.

It really is wild how much 5 over 1s are going up. I live in a residential area in the city that looks like Belmont or Arlington and within a mile of me there are 5-6 5/1 buildings going up right now. I lived in a brand new one when I first got here. Coming from Hudson Hards in NYC and all...

Minneapolis has a YIMBY message for America: Build more houses and get rid of suburban-style zoning and inflation will disappear Imagine that, cut red tape, provide incentives, build a lot of housing in the city and adjacent burbs along transit lines and rents don't go through the roof.

@Justbuildit, Si, chisme jugoso!!

Lol, I was pitched to participate in this investment. Cool to see they pulled it all together.

In the render on p.14, I was wondering who pasted in a bike on the bike rack on the lower left with a 7am stroller/baby sleeping bag for winter travel in what is supposedly summer. They added the building and landscaping to the late fall/early winter photo from p.13. The things your eyes focus...

Love the building, but still unsure about the NY Port Authority metal cross-braces. Also, those are some large panel gaps on the cross pieces.

I had that exact GE range in my last apartment. It is/was about $1200, so not bargain basement cheapo and the griddle in the middle makes excellent pancakes.

I started looking at how massive this building is and how are they going to get people to come into the office, etc. Then I remembered Boston's failed bid for Amanzon's HQ2 - which turned out to be a good thing, and the whole thing was postponed, anyway. Imagine if that went through.

I am late to this one. Luxury offices? That office market is not so hot these days. Why not have RAMSA design one of their many ~15-story early 20th century, Rosario Candela-inspired Upper East Side condo buildings there? It would fit perfectly aesthetically.

Combining 2 units = double the HOA fee. I guess if you are dropping $12M at 1 Dalton, you are not so concerned, but I would bet is is around $5-6K per month. Cute that they left it our of the listing.

What is the wall material? I have seen that shade of greyish, off-white-ish, sort of "old whale bones" color in a lot of new buildings.

I used to work at Deloitte and the Boston office is in the old John Hancock building, and is spread across a couple of floors. This will be a good move for them.

Question to the architectural cognoscenti here: How long will this curved corner windows, colossal order, etc. with bronze metal cladding thing continue, and how do you think it will age? I like it a lot (especially the curved glass windows), but it seems this is the new offset window, albeit...

Tight package, this. I was skeptical of the renders - looked ho-hum. I like the way it has come out.

When did we turn our backs on this building and start throwing so much shade?

These mf's living in the residential tower's south side will have an excellent view of watching the Twins play amateur baseball. ;) I'm looking forward to this hotel's completion. The North Loop needs more than 1 other boutique, a Residence by Marriott, an Element, and a Four Seasons...

That looks like some complex steel assembly going up at the base. Too bad it is shrouded by South Station.

I lived in Jackson Square for many years and it was a dump (a violent dump with gunfire often heard at night) when I moved in and a lot better when I moved out (ex. City Feed had just opened), but forward momentum has been slow in that neighborhood relative to other areas in the city. I am...
