I guess you can do a nice facade when the units sell for $2.6 M to $7.5 M each.

tell that to whomever dreamed up the current 115 winthrop plans.

the last half dozen comments make me feel welcome and at home......

no one can match the snide bastards of the Commonwealth.

Well you know what they say, "Location! Location! Nice Facade!"

It appears they're going to do art installations or something on the blank black wall on the sidewalk near Flour. They installed some lights...will be interesting to see the result.

I'm assuming a ground floor restaurant here. Any ideas as to what is going in?

It's not a very big space - only 1,400 sq/ft. I thought this was going to be a gallery space or something similar.

This cladding might be a spectacular upgrade for Center Plaza, O'Neill Bldg or JFK towers

*(after the office park is bombed with B-52's).

There should be a way for the Bldg Dept to have a dialogue with property holders that they can be encouraged to do upgrades when buildings become aged-out eyesores.

Looks like someone may have moved into the penthouse.

As much as I like this building and how it turned out, I have to say that it probably really feels like living in a fishbowl in there. Shades would be a must, but if you want privacy, they’d pretty much have to be down the whole time.

Especially that second floor unit on the corner.

I'm not a fan of the light grey paneling. Overall I'd say this development fits in totally fine, but is also highly overrated on this forum.

If someone is looking for privacy, then they should probably move to the burbs and not live in the city.

This is an insane statement.

I do agree this is a bit overrated here, but I don't recall the paneling to be as light as they show on pictures. Could just be the sun/lighting. The more recent photos here make it look more like the alucobond panels.

akmags - There are far too many reasons why your comment makes no sense at all (probably the most polite, PC way I can put it), but I'll just agree with Justin's response for the sake of brevity.
