This brings back memories of "Where's Boston?", the horrible concrete floor of the shopping arcade, the Copley Place footbridge that dumped you onto an empty deck, the Wiseguys at Vanessa's, and the Prince of Whales guy outside Star Market, along with those wonderfully pitiful escalator banks off of Huntington Avenue and Boylston Street.
In the original Thomas Crown Affair you can see a scene with Faye Dunaway, and the lead police detective on the "veranda" of the second story of the Pru. Very bizzare piece of design that you could access from the 2nd floor of the tower, or walk up a series of stairs that would be where the Body Shop is now. There was an open air plaza up over the roof of some of the shops.
The new Pru might be bad, but it is a lot better than what was there.
