Is this boring? Oh God Yes. It is likely the best chance at developing and best uses for the land. I would likely say yes.

Two of the gems of downtown are gone, one because of the fear of gay people and the other because of the worship of money, but hey, rich people can drink outside now so that's a win... right?

wow. the more details of this I see the more stunning it becomes. that alley is now a show stopper with the play of ornament and structure across multiple buildings and planes. Real nice.

it seems Daniel Libeskind’s first building in NYC is popping up a few blocks from me. https://www.dezeen.com/2018/04/06/sumner-houses-studio-libeskind-bedford-stuyvesant-senior-housing-brooklyn-new-york/...

thank you.

I'm sitting in the panera bread across the corner from this and they are currently installing that platform style construction scaffolding around the base of the core which has the forms removed. I was planning on giving up on this forum but this is just too much fun to watch. I'm going to...

Jouhou, I do not have any "weirdly intimate knowledge of this project." This board is a place for people who like to and know how to research and have an affinity for the built environment. There are people here who know every switch on the MTA, can recite the heights of every building in Boston...

Well she's dead so she's not designing any new buildings...

There are literately no other building around this. The views may be a bit off in the renders, but I don't doubt them, particularly the one facing the airport.

Thank you as always for these photos! I am still impressed by the station design. Simple, effective, and well conceived.

the new road layout with this proposal makes no sense at all.

here is a rendering of the new theater lobby that i don't think we have seen yet. from: http://www.wbur.org/artery/2017/12/15/huntington-theatre-approved
