Lol.
Chris, surely you've noticed at times that the Hancock, when reflecting nearby buildings on its lower levels, can appear quite green? stick n move isn't saying it IS green so much as it's a green-ish blue, whereas Raffles is looking to be a pale purple-ish blue.
Or here's a shot of mine from many years back... I'd definitely call that a strong aqua tinge
It's subtle but it's there.
The only green i see there is the reflection of 500 boylston’s copper roof. I’ve truly never seen nor heard of anyone seeing JHT as anything but blue reflective glass.
Morever, I've never heard or read anyone (up until today) describe it as anything other than blue tinted:
The NYT obituary for Cobb in 2020: "Henry N. Cobb, who in 70 years as an architect — more than half of them in partnership with I.M. Pei — designed some of the country’s most prominent buildings, including Boston’s
blue-glass John Hancock Tower, the tallest building in New England, died on Monday at his home in Manhattan. He was 93."
From the Wiki entry for JHT: The highly-reflective window
glass is tinted slightly blue, which results in the tower having only a subtle contrast with the sky on a clear day.
From a WGBH report on that attrocious mural from a few years back that was on the JHT's west-facing side: And in this case, JR saw something that I had never seen," Alonzo said. "He looked at
the tower, that signature blue glass and saw a body of water."
The above were amongst many such results of a... 2 minute (maybe?) Google search. Out of curiousity regarding my own potential color-blindness (I had a similar "it's blue!" "no, it's green!" debate about a certain body of water in the Mediterranean years ago), I spent far longer (10 minutes?) trying to find any reference to the reflective glass on the JHT as being "greenish" or "green" or "aqua" and found nothing.
