More old Hancock

I’m not partial to all old design... but I think certain buildings in Boston never deserved to have their lobbies replaced with blank, non-descript white design. While some might’ve had spectacularly ugly lobbies, they were quite memorable to many. (ex. 1 PO Sq) I just created this thread to...

I found a couple of 90s Prudential photos once from a designer site, but I think the link must've died.

Whole buncha stuff I found online: 28 State Street in the 70s 70s Prudential A lot of Fed Building stuff from the 70s Hancock BPL McKim building Quick bonus: Pru in the very early 2000s

It's also almost like the mall has no lighting at all. The grayscale color palette makes the place feel dark

Even if you’re still around and well, we’ll always miss you, Quest Eternal.

Ah, the old luxurious Copley Place, with its dated yet enjoyable yellow brick & red marble promenades. The place feels stark and strangely empty lately. It feels like somewhere I‘m not supposed to be in. I also found videos of marble installation in Copley Place from around 83 or 84. It was on...

First reply in a month but is the pavilion going to be constructed after the observatory is done? I just want to know anything about it because I'm definitely going to miss the look of the South Garden without the pavilion.

I could probably find more classic lobby images if I looked harder. That one came from a WaybackMachine mirror.

This is probably the only shot of the old lobby I’ve ever seen, and the only one I’ve found

The building's grand opening in '84

Exchange Place, 1984

I always really hated seeing the lovely colorful building interiors get transformed into nothing short of white paneling and that one type of glass (like the one on the 1POS entrance nowadays)

Alright this makeover has grown on me now. I'm not a fan of facade remodels that turn it all to glass, but I think this one's an O.K from me.

Interesting how the removal of just two decorations changes the look somewhat substantially

So is State Street moving from One Lincoln, or will they just be an anchor tenant for this building?
