Walked by after work today. Hadn't realized from other photos that the thin verticals on the side facing 100 Summer were actually an orange gradient, not glass. Looks good.

Spot on, especially the Farnsworth comparison. And the tallest portion, above the orange part, looks a hell of a lot like the Ferdinand Building in Nubian Square.

Saw this thing in person for the first time in months today, and I really gotta say that it was stunning. The way the glass was reflecting the clouds was almost other-worldly.

I don't hate them. I like that they're crooked and unaligned. Adds a little excitement, gives you a reason to look up because the architecture of these buildings sure doesn't make you want to do that. Also ironically helps to humanize the buildings a bit. The exteriors of both buildings...

I just can't get as worked up about this as most of you. To me, the worst thing about this development (by far) is still the loss of the West Gate building. The new building is bland and sterile, sure, but hardly offensive. If West Gate had been saved I don't think I'd have any qualms about...

Amazing, the ghost of that switchback is still visible today:

Nearly forgot about these pictures I grabbed while in downtown Framingham last Thursday. I gotta say that, despite the banality of these projects, and despite the general negativity expressed here, collectively these feel like a huge win for Framingham when taken in context. It probably helps...

Can't answer your 2nd question, but the building in the photo is the Eddy. Thread here: https://archboston.com/community/threads/the-eddy-6-new-street-east-boston.1946/

Back to Amherst for another visit on Saturday. Beautiful day. View from the 7th floor of John Quincy Adams The newly renovated Student Union and campus center The new Worcester Dining Commons in the Northeast residential area is also open And a couple random ones (Sycamore...

We've seen some beautiful examples brick veneer done well lately. Lovejoy Wharf, 45 Wareham, Whitney Hotel, and the Quinn are all stand-outs, and the Henry is pretty decent as well. I think brick was the right choice here, but too bad they couldn't have achieved something of similar quality...

Same, but to be fair I don't think they're particularly impressed with us either. Also, kudos to the mods for contriving such a diplomatic title for a thread that begins "who the fuck is still alive from the 1950s".

That picture of the Proctor Building is fantastic. I just looked on Google street view and the skeleton was there in November 2019 too. Different stance, looks like he was trying to climb the building. Anyone know if there's a story here?

Some screenshots from the PNF A bit bland overall, but I like this pedestrian passage that cuts through to Morton Street and Cutillo Park: I'm also very happy that they are preserving the buildings that face onto Endicott and Salem Streets: Many of the renderings in the...

No news is good news on this one. As far as I'm concerned, the project can stay in limbo indefinitely.
