Off topic, but I noticed Lufthansa has stopped operating the 748 on the FRA-BOS route...is that just a summer seasonal thing???

Re: South Station Tower Most of the Back Bay buildings are 350-400. Its just Pru, Hancock, and 1 Dalton that are true skyscrapers. And I guess 111 Huntington.

Re: South Station Tower Which one is the Back Bay T tower???

Nashville native here! Good news for us!

^ that doesn't look very nice, IMHO. the aspect ratio's should be thinner for a 500' building to give it the appearance of being taller.

Is the Back Bay Sheraton really 360'?

Can we get some skyline renders with this project, 115 Winthrop, and the South Station tower up??? Man, if only Copley Place was there...Boston would be kicking serious skyline ass (already a decent 7th place I think in the US).

Just googled it...MDW is a whopping 10 miles away from the loop. Thats about as far as JFK from midtown/downtown Manhattan.

DCA is OK because the tallest buildings in the DC area are in Roslyn and those are only around 450 feet. MDW is still a lot further away from the Chicago Loop than BOS is from downtown. I think MDW is 7-8 miles from the loop, but definitely at least 5. PHL and PHX are really close to...

Awesome to see this is finally U/C...wonder if wiki has updated the status from proposed to under construction yet.

It is true that the total # of skyscrapers in a city is more important to give the skyline a more massive/dense feel than just having one or two really tall buildings. That being said, I feel there is prestige with having a 1000' or at least a 300 meter plus tower. For that reason, I'd like to...

gotcha

The TD Garden area will have 4 towers of that height?

Its Columbus Circle (is there a Columbus Center as well???)...

From the pics on this thread, I can tell that the hub is basically the opposite end of the block as TD Garden. But after posting yesterday, I looked North Station up and remembered reading that its under the Garden, just like Penn Station is under Madison Square Garden in NYC.

Is there going to be a T subway stop at this site? Presumably there is one for the Garden? I'm not a Boston native, but isn't North Station really close by?

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District I agree these top 2 renders look pretty dope. As with anything a picture can be misleading. Lets see how it looks in a few years when it actually goes up. Millenium Tower and 1 Dalton are both very nice looking, so its not a total loss if this one...

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District Awesome!

Will anyone still be breathing by the time all of those get topped off??? How many of those are likely to go up in the next 10 years? Back Bay has all 3 seven hundred footers in the city. Downtown could really use a 700+ building. But since MT and Winthrop Square are almost that tall, you'd...

So is that first floor going up???
