Good to see the classic 744 back at Logan...I guess that will be the only 744 there now. Any word on if they will ever bring the 748 back to BOS?

Thanks for your timely reply...unlike this post of mine, lol.

Yeah SST really adds a lot from this angle. In fact its more impactful than both MT and Winthrop combined. But all 3 really add some magnitude to the skyline being nearly 700' each. Just a single 1000 footer would really enhance everything though.

Does this mean that most people are back to working in the office for a significant portion of the work week then??? Why build all this office space if most people work at home most of the time, right? One of my sisters works full remote for at least 1 more year (will prolly switch companies...

...is there a list of any new mid-rise towers (300-499 feet) to be constructed in Boston? Obviously, the past decade saw a good number of 500 footers go up, and clearly that cycle has ended with South Station being topped out or very close to being topped out. However, I think 300-500 footers...

The GCT-LIRR connection is 17 stories underground??? Damn thats deep! Pretty sweet to connect those two. What they really need and I'm kinda surprised they don't already have it is a subway to Laguardia...and a subway shuttle direct from Laguardia to JFK (this could even have 2 stops at Queens...

Boston and almost every other major city in the US has been shrinking in population since the pandemic. Some core cities have shrunk slightly, but its offset by the continued growth of their suburbs. Are the immediate Boston suburbs growing in population or are they shrinking too?

So this doesn't look like its 446 feet as listed on wikipedia. Looks more like a 380-400 footer...????

Does approved mean these towers are all definitely going to be built? If yes, its going to be great to add some more density to the Back Bay...even if none of them are 500 footers. Need those 300+ guys for increasing the density.

I can understand downsizing to an 343 or a 350 in the winter. But why go with the gas guzzling 744 over a 748? Especially with the Ukraine-energy crisis in Europe.

Did Lufthansa stop flying the 748 into Boston?

How can you do straight line distances on google maps???

This looks the same height as the Marriot and Westin at Copley Place...how tall are those two hotels? I was thinking/hoping that Raffles would be visibly taller than those two.

Has this thing topped out already?

From 93 north, Winthrop looks taller than MT (which it is but only by like 5 feet)...once the crown and cladding is done, it might hopefully look to be 20-50 feet taller than MT from that vantage point!

This is looking quite massive now especially from close up.

When is this bad boy gonna top out?

What happened to the flights to Boston by El Al, Royal Air Maroc, and Hainan Airlines???

I'm guesstimating its about 2/3 of the way there already. About 1/3 taller.

OK so part of the tower ends at this height, correct?
