Re: 45 Province St
I can't think of many, but here's one: 360 Newbury. (I don't think "The Lofts at Formerly Tower Records" would sell well.)

Re: 45 Province St
360 Newbury is a good example - their marketing campaign was on "360 degree views" and kept the "360 degrees/views" theme relevant throughout the campaign - so it was kind of a twist.
I e-mailed my former colleague who works at Boston's big real estate branding shop the name "Shadow on the Commons" and told him it was more genius than anything his firm has ever come up with!
He replied "Hmm, get me the name of the person who posted it - he's hired"
"Shadow on the Commons" - too funny!

Re: 45 Province St
This building certainly looks impressive to my eye -- to someone who has not been in downtown Boston for nearly two years the change to Province street is very dramatic:
I last saw this same view like this:
My hotel room certainly has a great view of 45 Province.
I presume this is for elevators; it is rather unfortunate to see.

Ah. The view from inside the Parker House. About that elevator shaft, I was talking to one of the hard hats about how lame the exterior treatment is. He claimed that there would be some sort of faux window treatment further up. I hope so, but haven't seen evidence of it yet.

Re: 45 Province St
One example of great fake windows is on the Alraya Office Tower in Kuwait City, this side is blank concrete, but look how good the cladding is? Even better than normal windows on most towers, I would say.
And the left side here, only one actual window but the cladding makes it look like its wall to wall windows.
That said, those stainless steel panels don't look so bad, I wouldn't mind them and actually would be a good contrast to the terra cotta without stealing the show.

Re: 45 Province St
These illustrate the concern I have with the elevator bank. Perhaps only at these top stories will they introduce the faux windows:
