Man, this thing is prominent. I wonder if this will become a geographical navigation point. "Take the first Pike exit after the stack of books building"
Absolutely agree. For those (myself included) who are frequently underwhelmed by the lack of daring, creative design work in the city, this is -- if nothing else -- bold. I am liking it more and more as it gets closer to completion.
I've seen some dusk and "early evening" renders, but I don't think there have been any truly night-time images. I wonder if this'll have any accent lighting or uplighting etc.
Photos and time-lapse video of BU’s Center for Computing & Data Sciences construction reveal the building’s much-talked-about cantilevers and the dramatic views from up high
This is an example of the stack of books design done right. Other examples definitely come across as cheap and gimmicky, but I feel this tower is what the design is supposed to look like.
