I'm going to miss that crane.
we're all gonna miss it. The top 60 feet of the tower is going to be very dark. And who decided all roof-lines would be totally opaque after dark in Boston.
The Pru and Winthrop ctr are the 2 most important so luckily those will be lit at a bare minimum.
Whats up with the antenna on 1 Dalton? Was this just a rumor? Or are we going to wake up the day before the crane comes down to a new spire? Its either happening soon or its not happening.
It's a rumor that started because someone looked at the FAA filing for the project and it has a permanent antenna height structure in the filing... this could be several things:
1. Filed prematurely (as in we might do this someday, so we want to permit for it now).
2. Filed mistakenly (as in, it was the crane height and someone goofed)
3. Filed correctly but weirdly (perhaps if a structure is going to be up long enough it needs to be marked "permanent" regardless of whether it's actually temporary... that crane has been up near the top for quite a while so it's possible)
There's been zero confirmation of an antenna. It was not put through the BPDA process with an antenna. My opinion is there is no antenna and a few of our height crazy fetishes vastly over analyzed the filing.
Great, thank you. This facade is too clean and purposeful to be ruined by an antenna thrown on top. That would clash with the design. Thanks for finally putting this to rest.
