Liberty Mutual Tower | 157 Berkeley Street | Back Bay

Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

Personally, I like the billboard. Liberty Mutual has a focused image of consistency and quality and I feel as if the billboard that says "The Dream Lives" complements the classic, understated building rising behind it.
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

are they really going to leave that gap in between those two crown panels, hell you could iterally put black tape on the backside and it would fix the light getting through making it not noticeable.
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

Agreed- there were similar problems on the crown (and the vents) on the back of the building at one point; and those were fixed. It looks sloppy on an otherwise well-clad development.

LOL It resembles a democratic picture of Deval Patrick after swindling the taxpayers 50 Million to help enrich his friends build on prime real estate that should never get tax breaks. "Priceless"

The Dream Lives
Now I have to raise taxes on the working class of Mass.

Overall I like the building. Not the greatest in the skyline but definteley acceptable for the backbay. Typical insurance building for the city.

they should have made the bottom of the skybridge clear glass... would become a tourist destination for the upward views!

From today:

Berkeley Street:


I like this from the Public Garden.

Ooh, cool perspective from the Public Garden! ^
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

Already looks like it's been here forever.

She's a beauty! Any night lighting as of yet?
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

Blegh; ruins the view of the Arlington St. Church steeple.

None so far, I am hoping the blank panels on the crown will have some sort of LCD display, but who knows.
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

Great juxtaposition in that first shot.
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

I do have to admit that this looks quality compared to that cartoonish yellow St. James building.
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

BUZZCUT. The skyline is a joke.
 
Re: Liberty Mutual plans major Boston expansion

It really does appear to have been built years ago it has almost an art deco look to some of the details.
