Great proportions

At first glance, it looked so nice that I figured it must be a refurb of a pre-war building that I just hadn't remembered being at that location. Build this today!

I like it... though I wish the old CBT vestibule at 110 Canal didn't block this from going up against the tall wall to the north.
Another missing tooth in the streetwall and 30w x 10xd x 16 floors space (4,000 sq.ft.) that won't be on the market or taxed.

The cornice is a nice touch.

Great proportions

I can envision a few more buildings in this neighborhood with this kind of FAR. Really solid massing.

The recent addition of the stone coping three floors from the top is really critical to provide for the traditional “base, shaft, capital.”

Nary an offset window or stack of books in sight.

Nary an offset window or stack of books in sight.

And, and... are those windows only one story tall? A miracle.

Handsome, proportional, contextual, could be a beautiful addition. After seeing so many fancy/sleek renders seriously fail to live up, I hope this old school one undersells it.

Would be better as residential. There’s at least 3 hotels in this area already.

 

[shmessy]

Now THIS is "urban"! Hell, they even incorporated a roof cornice on it!!!!! Finally, an enlightened developer.

Bravo. Boston should never shy away from being a CITY.

approved

The Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) Board of Directors this month approved eight new development projects representing 1,618,072 square feet (SF).

I'd say this development is almost there... but I still think Boston deserves better quality. Not crazy about the glass lobby section, but overall a nice project.
