Great picture. Great theme; now let's show off Boston's might; Get those proposed/ approved towers up and do the same shot from the identical location at about 400 feet up in a drone.


*Moments before Massport takes said drone operator to jail.

You can see in this how the High Spine leads up to the Downtown Skyline, and how the Seaport is sort of doing the same thing on the opposite end, albeit much shorter, and how the Garden/West End and (out of frame- Assembly and North Point) leads to Downtown as well. Next up is Widett, South Bay, and South End. Here's to hoping they do it right.

Totally spectacular photos posted in the past few days....

Almost looks like a GD City.
