It's going thru the legislative process as we speak/type. A link to yesterdays goings on the Hill. House, Senate at odds on shelter spending, Everett soccer stadium Senate leaders optimistic differences can be resolved quickly

Impressive digging. I do appricate the corner windows are being returned to somewhat their original mullion layout in the new renovation. I know of one building that has maintained their original 1920s steel frames of this corner type window. (I should post this on the "Where am I" thread)...

What is this nonsense!? Is it April 1st or something!?

Still working on setting rebar at the first floor since the beginning of October! Looks like they set the crane base as well. Hopefully they can pour the first floor before winter sets in. It can act as a roof area to enclose the garage levels below where they can work thru the winter.

Looks like some work has started at the Brookline Ave bridge side of the project as well on both sides of the turnpike. Bonus pic, a rendering of the finish product seen in the wild. Looks like the Buckminister is still remaining.

Steel and deck progreesing nicely. There was a question of what the finish product would look at the columns where the rebar was flanking both sides. There is a finish condition across the street/ turnpike in the last picture. The wall is the same height as the column on both sides, the gussett...

It appears this area was historically bad for pedestrians, look at this map of Haymarket in 1938. They had pedestrians tunnels underneath to the station Haymarket because of what I suspect was vehicle and horse traffic! The tunnels don't even go under the trolley tracks. .
