This looks a lot better now. Going to be a great addition.
Anyone know the address? If it around 333 Comm Ave it may be the former Jesuit priest residence which they left years ago. I don't know who took it over...it extended over several town houses. Ah, the days when Back Bay property could be bought for a song!
It’s 260-262 Comm Ave, a former Bay State frat house being redeveloped by the most inept collection of morons I’ve ever observed. 1010 is pulling their hair out at the incompetent manner in which they demo’d without a permit, screwed the abutters on both sides, and don’t have even a casual regard for code or life safety. Last I heard from someone who retired recently, they are mired in a stand-off with the Berklee School of Music, who owns the property to the west* and wants their temporary, illegal shoring off of Berklee’s property.
I haven't heard about it, but that doesn't mean it's not true (and something like that is inevitable).

I vaguely recall there is a thread for this but I don't think anyone has seen a render until now. Designs kind of uninspired riff on the West End tower whose name I cannot remember to the far right. I don't hate it but I don't love it.
Looks like this is in severe violation of the stubby buzzcut requirement for the area.Check out what I just found.... Since it's Christmas I'll optimistically put the odds above 0%, maybe at about 1%. Let's goooooo!!!!! (although truthfully I'd like it to be less glassy)

.Seconding all of these, particularly Lagrange and Kneeland. Anyone know anything?
Late reply, pretty sure this is the thread: 251 Causeway St | West End
The tower is underwhelming, especially since I like the brick along North Washington. The next towers should be the prison and hospital on the right. This picture just makes me want the new Washington Bridge finished...Check out what I just found.... Since it's Christmas I'll optimistically put the odds above 0%, maybe at about 1%.

It's crazy that this still is sitting in the same state years later, especially given the construction in the rest of the Seaport. Has there been any talk about it from Wu's office? The design was supposed to be 100% complete by the end of 2020, and just...nothing?
