Wow, that’s lame - the graffiti. It’s so weirdly specific about the grey paint.

Lights are on but no one’s there. I just want this building to make sense. Is that too much to ask?

Very fair - definitely closer to Inman Sq than Union. But yes technically a Somerville address. And also - there’s actually no ‘Inman Square Infill’ thread here are AB. But here we are chatting about it on the Union Sq thread! ;)

Finally some action on this property. Across street from Greentown Labs along Somerville Ave. Looked like a sidewalk auction happening today. It’s been sitting half-started for 5 years or more.

New trees and walkway are looking good .

Good progress. Cool stepped cantilever .

1826/40 Massachusetts Ave - across the street from Porter Sq. “100 affordable homes in a pair of buildings, there could be a park, community room and retail center to replace two underused parking lots near Porter Square.” Not even affordable and transit oriented housing by a non profit...

100% agree. I’m surprised - as far as I can tell - that you’re the only person who has mentioned the carpenter center on archboston. I could not even find the word Le Corbusier on this site. This building is Le Corbusier’s only building in the USA. If I had a top 10 Boston buildings list this is...

Finally made it to the top floor . Didn’t expect a deck. Cool view!

What’s the really pointy steeple in the right foreground?

Yep 59 Bow is going up. Also - I forgot the developer for this project (guy in the video above) the Vidal Sassoon heir, Elan. His buildings are a nice addition to Union. Now I just hope he can get the retail leased.
