Material goes into the hoist, up to the appropriate floor, then installed with a spider crane that hangs the curtainwall piece from the floor above.

Moriarty got the building, but I wouldn't hold your breath. IQHQ is on life support

Does the floorplate look really tiny to anybody else or is it just me?

I don't disagree that this land could be best served in another capacity. But there are SO many hurdles to move it at this point. I could be wrong, but in addition to all of the points made above, I heard there is fiber that terminates here connected to Europe. I think a more extreme example...

I think you don't have a full grasp on how real estate and development works. See if you can figure out how to move the pre-2000 data center to a better location in a way that pencils for any investor...

Nobody loves the CVS at the Brookliner as much as this guy

I think that was very well put and extremely accurate
