My only failure is that I didn't block you the first time around. Consider that corrected.

First of all, you completely skipped all the other links plus decades of historical data that are not in your favor. Because of course you would. Second of all, you wore your partisan politics on your sleeve so I know exactly where you stand coming into this. The rudeness with "I've been...

I mentioned it already on the Old Port Square thread, but the IZ policy has been a complete disaster for Portland. Hundreds of housing units on hold: https://mainebiz.biz/article/portlands-iz-fee-has-put-hundreds-of-housing-units-on-hold/ Public dollars touted incorrectly as IZ...

You would probably recognize them. Pulled this from google but highlighted the 6 songs you should listen to and would likely recognize at least 2.

By waiting until 2028 could they theoretically wait out the absurd 25% affordability requirement? Is the 5 years almost up and will that be rescinded? At least the new zoning maintains the potential for future height here and elsewhere, even if this particular tower doesn't happen. It just...

I just realized this first one was AI after posting it in the flickr thread. https://d2xsxph8kpxj0f.cloudfront.net/310519663218264800/dHFNNRBmfJirsrciGATxKt/hero-boston-2qv28kQQyLaZwPbgLNp83W.webp https://rinewstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Image-May-15-2026-06_39_25-PM.jpg

Looks like it's 238' counting it from the actual lowest point on the building. I know it's just 3', but might as well not leave that off.

I'm not the one doing it. I found them at the links below the pictures. They came up as part of my broader weekly search for new skyline photos.

The first one looks awful except for the ocean and islands. The second one could probably fool people, "Pruenthal" and all. https://images.whichsideoftheplane.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=webp,quality=90/v2/BOS-takeoff-left-1776021859799.png...

There's a new website that explains specific event lighting for the Prudential. Nothing listed for tonight but maybe it will give some interesting info down the road. https://prudentialcenterlights.today/

I like how they barely compromised on height across all alternatives. I was expecting it to come back significantly shorter, maybe 12-18 stories (or worse!) instead of 24-26.

For this site, only points 3 (economic growth/prosperity) and 4 (city condition) really apply. This site is dedicated to buildings and construction, with a side of transportation. The rest of what you said is out of scope and should be argued about somewhere else. Regardless of how I think...

The zoomed ones always come out amazing. I guess in that case the best option would be to try to find spots from the same general angles, slightly further out. For instance, if the first pics were from Kevin W. Fitzgerald Park in Mission Hill (just a guess) then maybe try Olmstead Park, or the...

As great as your aerials are (and they ARE) the one thing that's typically missing is a clean zoom of the full skyline. For instance, full size pictures that frame something like the exact scene below are the types that could change the hearts and minds of the Boston skyline haters, which are...

The dorm by Northeastern is at least 230' and underway. Also there's a 260' hospital building in Longwood. Depending on the speed of the foundations those are the candidates.
