Echelon Seaport | 133-135 Seaport Blvd | Seaport

Looking at all of this, in a few years, people will move to Boston and live and work on the Seaport, with places like Newbury Street or the South End being some far off place they visit on very rare occasions.

So great to see a neighborhood emerge from a sea of parking spots.

I like the subtle difference in color and texture of Building 2 vs. Building 1. It's still within the same theme, but sufficiently breaks up the buildings. So far, it's a much classier and cohesive approach than what happened at 345 Harrison at Ink Block where they seemingly just threw everything they could think of up against the facades.

I'm kind of amazed they did this project in a single phase. Good for them.

stefal · Dec 20, 2018

Echelon was voted this year's best development on Curbed.

Original Poll. Echelon got 9,438 votes (48%).

[Honestly surprised they got that many votes on Curbed. I thought their readership #'s were definitely lower than that, and I can't suspect someone writing a script to alter the outcome...]

it's breathtaking and at the same time, 400M people (in a minute) is scary.

i just drove across the Permian Basin for the first time in many years.

There are so many people. It's insane.

we are going to be China when we run out of oil.

I'm not quite sure I follow...perhaps I missed a discussion higher up. What do people in the permian basin have to do with this project and why will we be china when we run out of oil? Is this project owned by a firm backed with oil money?

Lol... just...

odurandina · Dec 20, 2018

^^yes it is

that's the only way i get out with my skin.

This reminds me of listening to wait wait don't tell me...filled with the laughter of self satisfied sixty year olds who are still compensating for being picked last at the kickball game every recess in grammar school. Esoteric knowledge is not the same thing as humor...but I digress.

Who knows? If he came back from Nepal pouting because they have something ~35 times taller than anything in Boston it wouldn't surprise me.
