The hidden message not so hidden in this paragraph from the EPNF, "We're just doing what everyone else is doing."
(And note, they call the John Hancock Tower "200 Clarendon" b/c, well, that's it's name now.)

The corridor is known as the City’s “high spine” and is home to many mid-rise and high-rise buildings. Figure 1-2 presents the Project Site in the context of the high spine. At the western end of the Stuart Street corridor is the 38-story Boston Marriott Copley Place and the 38-story Westin Hotel at Copley Place; and at the eastern end of the corridor is the 25-story W Boston Hotel and Residences at the corner of Stuart and Tremont streets, and the 29-story Ava Boston residential tower. In between these buildings stand the 33-story Clarendon condominiums and apartments at the corner of Clarendon Street, and the iconic 60-story 200 Clarendon Street, Boston’s tallest building, also at the corner of Clarendon Street. To the west, at the corner of Stuart Street and Trinity Place will be a 33-story mixed-use building located at 40 Trinity Place. At the corner of Berkeley and Stuart streets is the new 23-story Liberty Mutual Home Office building. These buildings vary in character, and contribute in their own way to the existing Back Bay skyline which includes Boston’s tallest and its most iconic buildings. A major new 47-story residential tower by Simon Properties at Copley Place has been approved by the City and is expected to be added to the skyline along the Stuart Street corridor as well.
