    How Tall Are Boston's Buildings and Should They Be Taller?

    Height is great but as we know, not what we are or should be in competition with anyone. Our restrictions to build tall outweigh most cities and we still have done it comparatively. I was speaking to transformational projects. The Seaport, North Station, South Station, areas that were nothing...

    How Tall Are Boston's Buildings and Should They Be Taller?

    No you're right, there are more. Even on their sites, and in development articles, basically the same three are in circulation though. Thank you for posting though, Stick.

    How Tall Are Boston's Buildings and Should They Be Taller?

    For a site like ours, the last 5-10 years whether you're contributing or reading along, has been incredibly special. Developments none of us EVER thought we would see in Boston, have not only been planned but have been and are being built. You're right DZH, we more than likely won't see many...

    I'm with you brother. Just curiousness on my part.

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Aren't they past that part of it mattering what the public thinks? I'm asking for serious, would that really matter now?

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    I believe right over that fence, east side of the tracks, they are doing foundation work for the tower. Also - Is it me or has anyone seen a project of this size have such a minimal amount of renderings. For the tower, there are less than 5. Would they still be considering changes? Pulling a...

    The New Retail Thread

    they clearly have the money and the connections to make this a hit. A lot of those brands could have been in seaport a long time ago. Cottonwood is an LA developer, sometimes it helps to allow others in..

    The St Regis Residences (former Whiskey Priest site) | 150 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

    The length of this project's construction is unbelievable. How many 22** (or so) story buildings can anyone think of that have a construction window as long as this? The complexity of all aspects of this project have been seemingly more significant than most. I'm not criticizing and understand...

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Fascinating article - and we know why things stalled around the floor plate change. Worth a read, at least I thought so. https://bostonrealestatetimes.com/suffolk-manages-20-million-pound-concrete-sky-mat-pour-on-winthrop-center-project/

    Had our current office market existed when this was in development, you would be looking at 121 Seaport above the garage instead. I think we're fortunate here.

    Boston vs Philly is liken to a (1) vs (16) seed, respectively, in the NCAA Tourney. It's not a contest.

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

    No one's getting upset. Just wanted to clarify your obvious hyperbole by saying you're wrong in that it was not the render shown everywhere from 'the jump.' The next picture you just posted again doesn't show it being anything but round. It's also fine if I don't like the look of the tacky ph...

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

    That's actually not totally correct. Most renders and plans, initial and of not all that long ago, show perfectly round mech cover. Mostly all are not edged and white, and further many renders show glass. Carr's website which is new and the updated One Congress website hardly show that the...

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

    I'm reserving judgment but I'm worried about the crown part after seeing the construction video and the screen shot of the all white, non-round finished product. The framing already built is looking to be exactly that. Not a fan.

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

    Do we know what the lighting is going to be like at night? Obviously, renders show an exaggeration or accentuation most the time but it's hard to tell. It looks like it glows near the wrapping.
