You can't be serious.

Some design changes were made to the development proposal. Saw this on the South End facebook group page.

Some very neat changes shown in this PDF.

The most obvious change is gaining height (to 321 feet) on the building further away from Albany in exchange for lower height on the closer buildings.

Renderings aren’t very realistic...I don’t see any bums or discarded needles...
 
The Infectious Disease Lab next door sticks out like a tumor.
 
Disappointing that the project has A: massive amounts of parking and B: zero housing
 
^^tons of housing going up along the corridor several blocks down.

Of course we wish it was all closer, but

this is a good office matchup overall in the South End.
