Re: Columbus Center
What it points out, though, is that people shouldn't argue for Columbus Center on the grounds that it will make this part of the city more walkable, or that it will 'knit together' anything that isn't already well-knit.
I like the Prudential Center (now, after its many revisions and expansions), but I wouldn't say that it ties the Back Bay to the South End especially well. If that were its goal from the beginning, it would look somewhat different now.
