Its been so long that the internet literally was not what it is today lol so I honestly have no idea where to find an article about it, or know if any exist.
Basically though since the early 90s there has been plans in one form or another to build a tower on top of South Station (the air rights were aquired in 1991.) Once the big dig went under construction there was a whole hell of a lot of construction going on all around South Station. Part of it included extending i90 under the tracks to Logan, the silver line tunneling at the other end of South Station, and they also connected the pike trench to the new CAT by the financial center. So they had a chance while this was going on to get this done for the future project.
Whenever the tower has changed it always keeps the same general shape due to the foundations. First it lost the spire, and this most recent version just got thinner at the top for condos instead of offices, but the general outline is always the same.
