Bay Village Apartment Tower | 212 Stuart St. | Bay Village

Re: 212 Stuart St

Too bad they probably bought it to keep anything from upstaging their Revere/Radisson pile.

I expect we will never see the Revere replaced with something better because the neighbors will throw a fit about anything over three stories.

Actually the Bay Village neighbors voiced approval for the previous 10 story plan for the site. I think you can get a mid-rise in this location if it is well done. That hides at least part of the Revere.

Can't wait for the Billy's Parking expansion /s
 
Re: 212 Stuart St

I think they are keeping the arch, either for here or as architectural salvage. I wonder what CCR stood for.

The back side of the building is much older than the Stuart Street frontage.

The arch is from the Hope Chapel, a German Religious Church Society building from the mid-1800's, 15 Shawmut Street. It was incorporated into the newer 1939 building on Stuart Street.

I think the emblem is actually GRC "German Reformed Church".

I suppose the one major benefit of living in a younger, more spread out city would be to be able to follow new construction without having to witness the razing of so many beautiful prewar buildings.

Would this be the tallest building in Bay Village?

It's right on Stuart Street next to the Revere Hotel. It may not even be taller than that, and certainly wouldn't top the W Hotel a block away, or Liberty Mutual a stone's throw in the other direction.
