Oooooh a diving board!! I wonder when the little pool below will be installed!

What a great angle/shot this last photo is! Once Raffles, One Congress, and if it were stretched a little more to the right, Winthrop Square, are complete, this could be my favorite skyline angle showing all of the tallest buildings.

Ahh ok thanks! Was wondering why I couldn't find anything on it.

What is that development under construction across the street from this?

I sure as hell hope so too! They're really going to look like weird sinkholes along Boylston once this parcel 12 is finished!

As good as that is for the protection of the area around the harbor, it still stings to think that friggin ugly ass garage in such a highly visible, high foot traffic area has to remain for who knows how many more years. Ugh. I mean, no one wants the seawall to deteriorate and the city to...

Oh yea the NikeTown building. I actually thought that was just a remodel of the old building, but that makes sense.

Is this the first completely ground-up new building to be built on Newbury Street in most of our lifetimes? I can't recall any in my 40ish years.

Damn you Copley Place Tower and the perfect way you would've filled that gap to the right of this!!!

If that mess up there qualifies as "aesthetic", then it's an extremely loose interpretation. It's just pure functionality, things that were thrown up there for necessity over the last 60 years. I just think there is a better way, a way to modernize and clean it up. If this is THE building people...

While they're up there, I wish they could add some sort of crown to the top to cover up that mess of mechanicals and antennas. They could keep the basic idea of the main antenna mast but beef it up more like the one on the Old Hancock building down the street. I don't think it would've been all...

Interesting design and materials... kinda retro, like '70s style almost, something that would've been built in Miami in 1973. It looks like faux wood patterning, which I can't recall seeing around, so that's...different...

I was just speaking aesthetically, but being as buildings mere feet away from it are over 125', it seems silly for that one spot not to be. I just think bumping it closer to 200' would give it that much more visibility and popularity when viewed from the Common, which would be a strong selling...

I love this plan of changing these little alleys, the way the former alley around the corner on Boylston (where the nightclubs used to be and is now, I believe, an Emerson building) was before it got developed. The design is cool and echoes MT and soon Winthrop, but dare I say, it could be a bit...

What's the plan?

It's not my actual job, it's part of a committee that I'm on at my job. I attend seminars, and assist with discussions of DEI matters for other employees in our office. I don't get "paid to be offended", in fact I only get a small stipend to do this in my office in addition to my actual job. All...

Gee so sorry to bring some awareness to your world. Get a grip. The discussion is about renders on an architecture website that encompasses society and the community that building lives in. You’re eye rolling peoples’ very existence, including my own and others on this forum. So you’re...

So the program designers and renderers can use different colors and shades for buildings but not people? I would say representation of the diversity of people is far more important than clothing fashions lol. I'm not going to belabor the point, but as someone who is partially responsible for DEI...

It's very clear the lens some people look through in their lives. I guess it's just upbringing, experiences, possibly general disinterest in those around them. This is a major transportation center and for SURE the people using this station over the next few years will look far more diverse than...

My guess is they have about 6 floors left to pour then mechanicals on top.
