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

Not to be a Debbie Downer but wasn't there at least one crane at the Millennium Tower for many months before anything started to rise at that site? I thought this project wasn't getting above ground for at least 4-5 more months. But the crane base is definitely some progress.

Yeah, f that article.

Amenities

Not only are other cities beating us up when it comes to sky-high condo prices, their towers are also offering more outrageous amenities. Boston’s new Four Seasons tower boasts floor to ceiling windows and a private restaurant for condo owners, among other perks.

All good, but how about being able to park your car outside your 20th floor condo, for example, and being able to walk right in? You can do that in new towers in Florida, New York and Los Angeles, which boast “sky-garages.” Simply drive your car into an elevator and up and away you go.

THANK GOD the "sky garage" concept has NOT caught on in Boston.

And you need a third crane to assemble it.... It's cranes all the way down.
 
Just walked by the area. Looks like they are assembling the tower crane right now. Also saw a couple crane pieces at 200 Clarendon this morning which I'm assuming are part of this crane.
