Gee, I'm getting that sinking feeling or did someone forget to report last weeks East Cambridge earth quake. (?) Not to worry, I hear the Gorilla Glue is on it's way.

Surprised it's not taller given the location. That had to be extremely expensive land to acquire.
 
Not only that parcel B is not taller (parcel D is only 2 stories, WTH!) all of the open space and surface parking lots must account for half of the total site area of all 4 parcels combined. Land here is almost priceless but grass lawns and unicorn grazing meadows are still considered by Cambridge to be a highest and best use in so many areas.
 
What were those long pipe-like thingys for, to keep the surounding ground from caving in until the outer walls are built?
