Four Seasons Tower @ CSC | 1 Dalton Street | Back Bay

The first of the three duplex penthouses closed today for $34m. No info on the buyer as it was purchased by a trust. This bumps total sales volume to about $465m with 89 units(of 170) still available or at least not yet closed.
 
i'm sure the ongoing construction and unfinished windows aren't exactly helping convince high rollers to get out their checkbooks. i wouldn't spend $300k on a studio condo with plywood windows -- forget upwards of $400 million for a penthouse in an alleged luxury living facility with the same incomplete/garbage appearance. very poorly planned/executed project (at least for the final stages which seem endless).

Almost half a billion in sales and we're still rocking the plywood on a building that opened up almost a year ago. Laughable. Cannot conceivably be a supply issue at this point.

BosDevelop -- the speculation is that the buyer is Michael Dell [or Dell Technologies] as Michael Dell is a key cog of the Mass Competitiveness Partnership [2020 version of the legendary Vault]

So Mike clearly needs a place to hang his hat when Austin is just too too hot, etc.

Any news on the plywood? They are trying to emulate the Hancock in every way apparently. Let's hope they don't need to do a full cladding replacement here too! o_O

DZH -- those last two pix are reminiscent of an image from some James Bond movie with a HUGE Laser or maybe the one with a Solar Reflector
Great secondary reflection onto the Charles -- just too much wind to get a coherent reflection
 
Though some beg for Photoshop retouching, these amazing photos are a joyful break from winter.

Did someone forget to order those particular windows: or did they call for a tweak that was overlooked
God, this is not so Boston. But it sort of is.

Neon -- those are two of the best [up close and personal] images of 1 Dalton
I'm a big fan of strange juxtapositions of buildings and shadows and reflections.

Many of these kinds of composites are uniquely Boston due to the general lack of a rectangular {Cartesian] grid of streets which in many cities enforce a strict alignment of facades and edges -- but in Boston we are all about a much more general geometry of our streets.

Keep going for these kinds of images :cool:
