Re: 45 Province St

A few weeks ago, when their was just a gaping hole where the window is now, I tried to peek in and it appears that the interior space is much larger than the original footprint of the Littlest Bar. It appears that the the the space extends well underneath the the footprint of 45 Province St.

So, while the facade may still look dinky from the curb, the interior space is likely to be larger than the Littlest, whatever ends up going in there.
 
Re: 45 Province St

I believe the plan is for the building to have two restaurants. One casual and one more upscale. I don't think the building has agreements with restaurants for either space yet though. Since the residences don't start until the 7th floor I'm not sure that noise will be a major concern.

The glass looks awesome in that picture! The blank wall looks...well....um..red.

I'm being too picky today though, overall this is a great project and I'm really happy the way it came out. That's a great picture, the view down the alley is really cool.

It does seem like it would be the perfect place for a balcony, doesn't it? It may have been a little tough to do it for the black wall, but it seems too perfect an addition to the red wall to be left out...it's odd that this building is so pretty in many places but then there's angles of the building that it seems the architect just plain forgot about.

Ron, I think Toby was suggesting that open houses at the MacAllen have been unsuccessful, aka have "gone Titanic"

Now that is the Manhattanization of Boston -- and it looks good!
 
Re: 45 Province St

I like that last picture a lot! All the different buildings mashed up together seems to give it a chaotic vibe.

Best building of '09.

Best facade, maybe. Too bad one can only fetishize its good side.
