We really should not be taking or posting photos from the driver’s side of a moving car.

Unless it was edited to zoom in closer and the member posting was in the backseat on an Über and snapped it then.

Or a phone was on a mount and used a voice command to take said picture.

No idea that the rapper Rick Ross had a street named after him near Fenway.

I knew Richard B. Ross. He was a family friend who died on 9/11 on one of the planes out of Logan. He was a good man.

Flight 11 or Flight 175. They were both crashed into the World Trade Center's twin towers.

Great picture but you can also see how it's really messing up some of the iconic Back Bay views from the west. As I like to say it's the price of progress. It's too bad this one wasn't built.

As it was reaching its full height, friends of my parents complained about how 1 Dalton was “ruining” the “classic” (or iconic; take your pick) Back Bay skyline. Ironically some of those same people told me when I was a kid how “everyone” (other than them, of course) hated the JHT when it first went up and how *it* was ruining the skyline.

I don’t think anyone outside of local architecture fetishists consider these views from the west to be “iconic,” anyway.

I agree that earlier proposal would have been more impressive.

The only true iconic Boston sklyine. We've been ruining it for 300 years.

When are the buildings supposed to open?

I don’t know about you all, but the renders didn’t really prepare me for how tall this was going to be. Drove into the city on the pike this afternoon, and boy does this loom.
