    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    This building is a gem from all angles. Its probably the 2nd best looking tower downtown after MT, in my opinion.

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    So this is definitely u/c now, right? Any idea how long before it starts going vertical...6 months? Closer to 12?

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    I don't know what people are complaining about vis a vis looks. This tower looks pretty good. And its tall. Get it up, I say!

    The Hub on Causeway (née TD Garden Towers) | 80 Causeway Street | West End

    I was thinking the same thing when I saw those pics!

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    Yeah this thing looks like a gem on the skyline!

    [CANCELED] 1000 Boylston Street | MassDOT Parcel 15 | Back Bay

    I really don't think a 600 footer vs a 500 footer would make much difference in this area. Yeah if it was something massive like 1000' it would be awesome and revolutionize the skyline. But 544' basically makes it the same size as 111 Huntington and kinda on the opposite side. So from many...

    Shit, this baby looks sweeter than I remember before! Can't wait till this one is completed.

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Anyone got any renders of what downtown will look like once this is up? And for the record, is this gonna appear taller than MT? Official height its only a mere 4 feet taller I think (691 vs 687).

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    Wiki says 1 Congress will be 647' but the Globe is saying 528...is the globe just counting highest occupiable floor or roof height? Looks like the building has a flourish that could take its architectural height to 647...

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    They got the last few floors clad pretty quickly. Is the cladding complete now on all sides? 1 Dalton is a 3 sided building, right?

    EK used to have 3x dailies to JFK and now those are just 2x now. Perhaps the cut backs happened across the board...

    Did Emirates have 2 flights per day to BOS???

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    The number of commuters (for work, business) on a weekday is probably at least equal to the population of Boston - so another 700,000. Assuming 150,000 Bostonians work outside the city limits (just a guess), thats a net gain of 550K to the 700K that live in Boston = 1.25M. If you add the...

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    Oh yeah I know all that. I was just pointing out that the Back Bay skyline alone is on par with the skyline of cities like Nashville, Louisville, St Louis, Indianapolis, etc. Those are all fairly decent sized cities.

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    I disagree. I think some of these older-yet-still-modern buildings belong in any skyline. Obviously, gleaming glass towers like MT or 1 WTC in lower Manhattan are awesome, but the Pru is not ugly. Neither are the Westin/Sheraton/Hilton buildings in the Back Bay. They might be a little to short...

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    1 Dalton certainly is a nice tower. So is Millenium Tower downtown. Hopefully 115 Winthrop, TD Garden Tower also continue the trend. Bulfinch Crossing has really sweet looking renders. Is there anything else 500+ planned for the Back Bay in the next 2-3 years?

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    Just checked...i think its only 17 UC buildings in NYC taller than 1 Dalton. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_New_York_City#Under_construction

    Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

    27th in NYC is not that bad I guess. 748' is pretty tall. The problem with Boston is that that is basically the tallest building in the city (790 for the Hancock). Boston really does need a 1000 footer somewhere to really stamp its authority but the logistics of Logan plus all the archaic shadow...
