    Lyrik Back Bay | 1001 Boylston Street (Parcel 12) | Back Bay

    I walk by this location often; I think it's too early to judge the pedestrian experience since the front sidewalks and plaza are surrounded by fencing. From what I can see through the fences it looks to be promising and a huge improvement over what was there.
