Cell phone pics from my office in the JH tower. Sorry for the glare in the second one, I'll bring a real camera in next time!

Re: Avalon Exeter (formerly New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center)

the precast cladding panels look suspiciously like those on The Victor.
 
Re: Avalon Exeter (formerly New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center)

Yes the ribbing (or whatever you want to call it) is very similar, but it mercifully isn't the same pukey color. And actually there's just a touch of yellow to the beige here that IMO makes it better than average (you know, since the average lately has been so damn high).

Except that it actually looks really good.
 
Re: Avalon Exeter (formerly New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center)

I think they have less of a yellow undertone but it is hard to tell in the pictures. If they do not have as much of a yellow-tan look I think they will be okay.
 
Re: Avalon Exeter (formerly New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center)

citylover, I would say the second to last picture I posted probably came closest to capturing its real color...it's a very bright, almost white sort of beige with just a touch of yellow. But to be sure the dominant tone is a bright off-white.

Thanks for letting me know kz and the is the picture I liked the look of the panels in best so that is good.

Looks like some panels will need to be cleaned


Not much progress since the last photos...

Re: Avalon Exeter (formerly New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center)

wow this thing was needed here, if things like this keep popping up here and there around the city before you know it most of the junk becomes hidden and we end up with an actually classy skyline.
 
Re: Avalon Exeter (formerly New Tower(s) Planned For Prudential Center)

I was hating on the cladding in an earlier post, but now that more of it is up, I am really starting to like it.
