I was in there yesterday and there is a big white wall in this spot with that logo on it. It's just off that 4-way hallway intersection, around the corner from where you go in to get to the Pru elevators.

Boston and the greater Boston area are steadily increasing in population and have been for the last 15 years. It is predicted that with the massive amount of bioscience and other tech companies moving into the area and the completion of the tremendous amount of housing and new neighborhoods...

The only practical amusement type attraction I could see here would be a large ferris wheel, preferably with enclosed capsule pods for year-round use.

All these stupid wires and poles in our cities- I can't stand it!! It just looks so developing-nationesque! It's one thing in residential home neighborhoods, but areas like this and a lot of Cambridge?! Ugh just bury them for fucks sake! I know others have brought up the investments the cities...

No no no. I'm sorry but if a massive amount of money is going to be spent to cover up that hole and cinch the neighborhood together, that building had better be top notch! Once it's built, we're stuck with it for probably the rest of our lifetimes, other than little updates. This is a MAJOR...

It looks almost like there's an attempt at spelling something out or initials of some sort. People will look at this puzzlingly and think, huh? What is it supposed to say? Oh it's actually nothing but bizarre design? Ok... cool... As much as I 100 million percent want that stupid hole in...

I was born in upstate NY and moved around between that area and Mass as a kid, but I always knew my home was here in the Boston area and was never going to settle down anywhere in NY. I enjoy visiting NYC and have some family in the northern suburbs, so I am there often, but the entire layout of...

Where is that angled "A" shape in the corner shown in the render? That was the only semi-unique feature.

Yea it's not, I was just adding in my own opinions based on annoying interactions with New Yorkers in and around NYC. The last paragraph was what also irritated me, with "Boston has a reputation for being a bit salty and perhaps a bit mired down in its own history (there’s something about Happy...

That is the dumbest, most shallow article I've read in a long time. Jealous much?? Such a trash "newspaper"! As if Boston isn't a major American metropolis?! "Land of the Pilgrims and Dunkin Donuts" really?? Clearly written for low-IQ morons who have never left their dumpy backward suburban NY...

One of the very few times I will say that a new building should actually be shorter. If the top third was cut off and they eliminated the stupid wavy line of the brick-colored portion then it would be a complete background blend and no one would even notice it from the water view. I also think...

In 10 years?? That long to make these mostly minor changes? Damn

Ugh how I wish they could've added some kind of cool looking screen above to hide all the mechanicals and various little antennas and turned the central one into an actual spire, incorporating the big antenna within. It could look so cool plus add on about 100 feet to the actual height. Plus...

Can't the cities themselves do it without the state's money? With all the life sciences/tech companies moving into Cambridge and Somerville, certainly the huge amounts of extra tax and revenue they're bringing in over the empty lots, run-down strip malls they're replacing can go into their...

I was literally just about to type this exact same thing! It is LONG past due for Somerville, Cambridge and many other urban areas to bury all of these power lines!

Painfully. Slow. Demolition.

Man! That Ground Round space was HUGE! Same with that Fleet Bank. Looks like they had larger footprints than the Pru itself! The Berkshire Grill was definitely not that big. I think it must've taken up the space of the former Dick's Last Resort as well. It's wild to think how much this area has...

Yea we've had a great run. There's still tons going up but nothing super impactful to the skyline (I know, there's a lot to be said about street interaction and the role new buildings play in their neighborhood, but I'm just speaking as somewhat of a height fetishist now). I'm hoping that in...

I can't wait til this tower starts to rise! Now that State St, Winthrop, and most other taller u/c buildings are topped off, I'm jonesing for a new tall one to watch!
