King Tide 2070.
Topped off.
In Boston, the actual tops of the tallish towers don't officially exist until after the last construction workers have left, and representatives of the Wikipedia call to ask the Building Dept how tall the thing actually is. Of course, we hope this 'oddity' with local tower construction never ends.
Meaning there's only about 40', or 10%, left for it to climb!
Such a ridiculously stupid (and dare I say dishonest?) milestone in this city.
Yup, I will be calling soon to update Wikipedia, Emporis and CTBUH ;-). Right now I am tracking a pinnacle height from 367' to 378'.

Great to be at the topping off for the Pierce in the Fenway with @BostonPlans and @marty_walsh.

Presales of 109 luxury condos in the $300-million Pierce Boston tower in the Fenway are averaging prices of $1,500 per square foot with 40 percent sold ahead of the projected spring 2018 occupancy.
