Seems like most of the architecture they’ve put up in the north end in the last 10 years is fucking terrible

Welp, after all, those shadows are killers.

I was at an event once where the Mayor was speaking and some clown took the last question to ask her if she specifically opposed the 2 Charlesgate West tower because we all know shadows are a harm to human health and the environment, and that on those grounds she must oppose the project.
Never forget that shame is dead and people will lie about things, even in public. Not at all a surprise that a building barely in the North End, clearly improving the streetscape is going to be opposed by the old timers.

The building next door to the right has a property line window on the side, which would trigger a setback for fire hazard. They must be proposing blocking the window (which should not be there on the property line anyway, per code).
The new North End Community center & Mirabella Pools have been under construction for a while - groundbreaking was last year - but to date I hadn't seen renders of what it was going to look like, so I thought I'd drop them here.

88-91 Commercial Wharf
“US Wharf LLC (the Proponent) proposes to demolish the existing structure and construct a new 4-story, 28,680-square-foot boutique hotel containing approximately 35–45 keys. The project would also include approximately 2,000 square feet of first-floor restaurant space open to hotel guests and the public, as well as dedicated open space with new Harborwalk connections. As the property is located within the North End Waterfront Sub-District of the Harborpark and exceeds 10,000 square feet of gross floor area, it is subject to Large Project Review.”
