Any guesses on what will be built on Simmons vacated residential campus after this is built? If combined with BU's underutilized former Wheelock campus it would be an enormous development site.
Operational yes but very underutilized. If someone offered BU a good deal on the property they would sell it in a minute and build StuVi 3. BU is known to spend millions on renovations and demolish or re-renovate the building a few years later.What do you mean by underutilized? The residences at the Fenway campus were recently updated into apartment style spaces. The academic buildings and the theatre have remained operational.

While not that far from the Charles River Campus it would not be possible to have regular undergraduate classes there due to the long walk to the CRC or having to take the BU Bus. At best it would be very awkward to try and integrate it into the class schedule.
Skanska pulled the building permit. Simmons has a live feed of the construction. Wish we could get more of these:

I love livecam feeds!
Is there an appetite here to have a thread dedicated to listing all the livecams around Boston?
Consider this an olive branch....

I love the idea that people will just be sitting in the bleachers in business attire with their iPads watching random people swim or shoot hoops. Kind of creepy, actually.
After you leave the pool/court they slowly get up and follow you into the lockers, always staying just a medium distance away. They don't try to talk to you, but send eldritch texts and emails to each other.. plotting.I love the idea that people will just be sitting in the bleachers in business attire with their iPads watching random people swim or shoot hoops.
