Seems so cookie cutter. Don’t we have the same taller building over by North Station?

Wowza.

Yep, I noticed that too. Pretty creepy. I went past around 9. It was like it had disappeared.

Re: Official City Hall Plaza Proposals Or it's just that City Hall Plaza sucks and nobody wants to go there!

Re: Seaport Parcels M1-M2 | Seaport Sq. | Seaport Crazy how things have changed! That birds eye view render doesn't show the Whiskey Priest building. They'll be some views to the water blocked from that front building it looks like.

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District That's slick! Get on it. I won't feel depressed everyday walking by there now.

wow. this is like nothing in Boston and it's gonna outclass all!

That's deep.

Just a thought. Could you ever redo the spire on the Pru? Make it more substantial and add presence to it's height? Great pics btw!

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District Ok, but it was classy and could hold it's own. And yes, they won it with the money. My point tho was that it's seems like a strategy to show something much better up front, tear everyone's expectations down (current design), so they can then make it...

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District Seems like a smart tactic: Win with an amazing design. Bring everyone's expectations to the lowest possible. Then build 'em back up with a somewhere in the middle design. Everyone's content! Wishful thinking I guess.

I think you're right on Millennium Tower. Should 1 Dalton be an exception since it's outside of some of the review process? And yes, Love Joy Wharf def got better. The recent news on Winthrop Sq has had such a negative impact on my perspective.

Is it possible for a development to get better than proposed in this city? Is that even a thing? Are there any cities where that happens? Or is it just normal that developments are cut back and get VE'd to shit, at least to shit compared to the original proposal?

The spire on the old render was kinda weak. The multiple facades on this are hideous. That middle one reminds me of the pregnant building. The only things I like about it is the reddish color illuminated inside the top overhang and the contrasting orange and blue tones. Hopefully they'd light it...

I like it a lot! Color selection was key. Sits more in the background but adds some class.

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District I know. I was gonna go back and edit the comment cause 4 Seasons did come to mind and it is beautiful. I'm just so pissed about this one. .

Re: 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District What a f'ing let down. I guess this is what you get in a city where so many are barking up the tree complaining about shadows, height, wind or whatever it may be. We'll never know what it's like to get new beautiful architecture in this city. We'll...

Re: Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown Exact location DBM!

Re: Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown Thanks for the props guys. Why close a thread when the building is still relevant? I guess it's not so "new development" anymore, but still kinda.
