    Copley Square Revamp | Back Bay

    That stretch of Dartmouth absolutely needs to go, Boston needs to get much better at "plaza" design overall, and this whole most-recent refresh is taking laughably overlong. That said, it's not as if Copley Square -- when it's fully open/operational -- is an embarrassing disaster. Certainly...

    dag that's ugly

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Fair point. I meant more that, via movies and coverage of sports etc., people - whether they "care" about skyscrapers or not - see things like the Pru and Fenway, both of which are fairly distinctive, whereas Paul Revere's house is... a small, black house and the Public Garden is a garden. I...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    In terms of international recognition, I fully agree Fenway is there, but I promise you more people in Ireland and Spain (etc.) have an awareness of the Pru than they do Paul Revere's house or the Public Garden.

    133 Federal Street sold - Rudolph building (not that Rudolph)

    Living in the CBD is getting more and more appealing. Nowhere near a 24-hour city (yet), but there's a TON more going on past 5pm then there was just a decade ago.

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

    Awful pix - sorry; far away and just with my ancient-ass phone — but the big point is the new lighting highlighting the “swoop” is so cool!

    Midtown Hotel Redevelopment | 220 Huntington Avenue | Back Bay

    As previously stated, I like the building and very much like that there's a central location for visiting friends of mine that's actually affordable and keeps more than 6 people from trying to crash in my tiny somerville condo.

    The New Retail Thread

    Where are you going (or, maybe more appropriately, where *aren't* you going) that you come to this conclusion?

    "Dirty Old Boston"

    It hasn't! Love Southie and love that (those) beach(es).

    That spot has been begging for redev for a looooooong time.

    Allston Square | 334 Cambridge street | Allston

    If they can keep the facade of 10 Highgate and all these housing units I am so in favor of this. Full steam ahead!

    Damn! Wish I'd seen that.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Work there? Know someone who bought a place? Enquiring (nosy) minds want to know! (nice pix, btw)

    Parcel P-12 | 286-290 Tremont St | Chinatown

    The original 28(?)-floor design was quite nice, too.

    Parcel P-12 | 286-290 Tremont St | Chinatown

    That is truly a shame. Chinatown (and all of Boston, but in particular Chinatown) needs much more housing.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Well-put. And Boston could use a little more "flash" in my (subjective) opinion. Driving up from the South Coast last night on 93, the purple crown looked great.

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

    Aside from JHT, this is easily the boldest and most enjoyable high-rise in Boston. I'm still kind of amazed it happened.
