    Tallest Buildings Out of the Ground and Growing

    For this site, only points 3 (economic growth/prosperity) and 4 (city condition) really apply. This site is dedicated to buildings and construction, with a side of transportation. The rest of what you said is out of scope and should be argued about somewhere else. Regardless of how I think...

    Aerials

    The zoomed ones always come out amazing. I guess in that case the best option would be to try to find spots from the same general angles, slightly further out. For instance, if the first pics were from Kevin W. Fitzgerald Park in Mission Hill (just a guess) then maybe try Olmstead Park, or the...

    Aerials

    As great as your aerials are (and they ARE) the one thing that's typically missing is a clean zoom of the full skyline. For instance, full size pictures that frame something like the exact scene below are the types that could change the hearts and minds of the Boston skyline haters, which are...

    Tallest Buildings Out of the Ground and Growing

    The dorm by Northeastern is at least 230' and underway. Also there's a 260' hospital building in Longwood. Depending on the speed of the foundations those are the candidates.

    I've seen them completely fade away in person, depending on how the sun is hitting it. In the pic above it looks like the sun would be hitting that side head on. Here's another example. https://viewboston.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Desktop-Home-Page-Video-Image.jpg

    Boston College Master Plan

    I think it's dumb that the whole campus looks the same. Each building is nice enough on its own but it's downright silly to have a full grouping of them. I had to take a preparatory class at one of the buildings and found the campus confusing for this very reason.

    Porter Square Infill and Small Developments

    I remember it was "going up" when I still lived in Somerville, and I moved out of there in 2011.

    It's even better if you stay on the ramp towards South Station, a slow-roll directly into the downtown skyline.

    The Vale Boston (Kraft Foods Redevelopment) | Woburn

    Nobody has mentioned access. There's only one way in or out, which is by the McDonald's. There is no connection down to Sunset or Forest so every single additional car is going to come out to this one light on an already brutal section of Montvale. If they're planning on connecting one of...

    Tallest building in town, can you name the city?

    I didn't pick up any clues. It was just the first name that popped into my head and then I searched that city name under google images. I had to use quotes "sioux city" and "-falls" because it kept showing me Sioux Falls pics instead. It was a wildly lucky guess that I then confirmed through...

    Tallest building in town, can you name the city?

    Actually I think I found Post 213 with my first guess.... Sioux City, Iowa?

    Tallest building in town, can you name the city?

    Why'd we skip this one? It's Fort Smith, Arkansas. I cheated but only because I'm a completionist and didn't want it to get lost to the dust bin of history. No idea what the next one is from Post 213, but won't cheat as long as nobody tries to jump ahead...

    Photo of the Day, Boston Style: Part XX (2026)

    I'm not that young (although had a haircut recently so the overabundance of grey hair doesn't jump off the page as much) and my camera isn't that nice! It looks like I managed to snag 48 pictures in the ~4 whole minutes they gave me at the top, covering 11:25 to 11:28. I entered the line...
