    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Actually, the presence of a restaurant and a college fitness center in the building does not preclude there being a CIA ops center in the building. The UDG on the first floor used to be a CVS. The ugly facade is now crumbling. A perfect cover! :cool:

    Boston Landing | New Balance Complex | Brighton

    I wonder if developers deliberately add more floors to their project than they want to build. Knowing that the city/NIMBY's will chop off floors no matter what the proposed height.

    BU Data Sciences Center | 665 Commonwealth Avenue | BU Central

    Pardee gets a new building while COM will be kicked out of its dumpy old building with no published plans for a new site.

    But that is not why most people hate the City Hall building.

    BU Data Sciences Center | 665 Commonwealth Avenue | BU Central

    I wonder how many people praising this BU building have condemned Boston City Hall and/or called for its demolition. City Hall was considered new, interesting and groundbreaking when built in the 1960's.

    BU Data Sciences Center | 665 Commonwealth Avenue | BU Central

    One question about this building and Northeastern's ISEC and EXP: With all the fins, how do they wash the windows?

    Is that on the site of the old MBTA trackless trolley carbarn?

    State Street HQ | One Congress | Bulfinch Crossing | West End

    It doesn't look like any more of the garage has been demolished facing Haymarket Square. I thought that they were going to take advantage of the Orange Line shutdown to do that.

    Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

    Tufts now joins Northeastern, BU and BC as a streetcar college!

    BU Data Sciences Center | 665 Commonwealth Avenue | BU Central

    Just to be a Debbie Downer I predict that in the next 5 years BU will spend a minimum of $10 million to fix/replace some of these advanced features.

    Lyra (née The Huntington) | 252/258/264 Huntington Avenue | Fenway

    Actually, I like the CSC! It is one of the few Brutalist complexes that has aged well. It makes a fine extension of the Northeastern campus. Symphony Plaza is something else.
