    The Lake Prudential

    So, the most recent Boston Courant has an article about something I've never heard of (imagine that?). I skimmed most of the article, but basically, the way I read it, in 1957 construction began on the Prudential building. Due to financing issues, it eventually stopped (sound familiar?)...

    Boston in the Seventies
