Is there anything up on the other side? All the pics seem to be from the same side.

There's not a lot of easy access to the east face of the building, so it's hard to get close-up pics of that side.
 
There's probably some facade up on that side, but it's still completely covered up by that white scrim.

That chiller up above the utility screen looks out of place.

Whatever. This thing is so awesome it could have a garbage compactor on top and it would look good. This is how you do a randomized facade. The YMCA and Waterstain Place should be even more embarrassed now.

The banner says, 'are you ready?'
 
Is it sad t hat when I first saw the latest construction picture that I didn't think this building is in Cambridge or Boston and thought it must be from somewhere else?
 
What's going on with the giant concrete wall?

There will be a 2-story parking garage on the front side of the building. So that concrete wall is going to be the outside wall of the garage. They have been putting up steel inside the garage a little at a time. They needed to have a crane in that garage area so it left wide open while the siding was going up.
 
So many buildings going up now try to be flashy with all these asymmetrical designs but most just look like a bunch of failed ideas rolled together. This one nails it. I love it!
