You can see the height that the new building will be in this render where they didnt remove the old tower but still rendered the new one thats replacing it. It looks like its behind it in this picture but in real life it will be replaced by this shorter building. Also note this render doesnt have the mxd 2 residential tower, which will be the tallest in Cambridge until Volpe, which isnt rendered either.
Volpe Tower will be the Cambridge Game Changer -- no render of the view from the Esplanade is anything but a "Placeholder" until it is included
From every Cambridge Picturesque View and some others as well -- It will say to visitors from all over -- just like Alexandria's Pharos*1 --
This is Kendall Square -- or as the KSA says
