Is it confirmed that this went from one of the most colorful, exciting proposals in the city to 2 dull, plain white buildings? The BPDA continues to do this city wrong, one sterilizing decision after another.
Yes, but someone commented on the prior page that the BPDA isn't responsible for that - Samuels made that change to save money.
The render the BPDA tweeted out yesterday, which is featured on the project page, includes the green panels. So I really don't know what's going on here...

YES!! Great sign.
Two sources familiar with the deal said fast-growing CarGurus has a letter of intent to lease roughly 300,000 square feet in the 540,000-square foot-building, though they stressed that such a step is short of a signed lease, and either party could still walk away.
Walked by this afternoon and a gentleman making the same markings on the Newbury Street/Mass Pike entrance and grassy median side of the site as when they marked and soil tested on the Boylston St side. Plans in his hand were of the site and I tried to get a close up of them until he noticed me taking photos and I stopped.
