How does that lighted crown play with the JPMorgan sign, I wonder?

I prefer these side views over the front and back.

Good read. Probably because I moved to Boston well after 2009, but I had no idea Tufts was once involved with this project.

Video shows water pouring from ceiling of new South Station concourse - The Boston Globe

The leak was caused when a contractor "impacted" a pressurized water line, the MBTA said.

A contractor “impacted” a pressurized water supply line at South Station Thursday, causing water to pour into the station, the MBTA said. The incident was caused by a maintenance contractor who was working above the “exterior concourse of South Station,” an MBTA spokeswoman said by email.
Video of the incident shows water pouring from a light fixture in the ceiling of the soaring new concourse at South Station.

Its the weirdest side, but it's growing on me. It actually looks good. Thanks for the pix!

It looks like a binder clip squishing a skyscraper.

The weirdest side and also the most interesting side. The wide sides are already background noise for me.

I really like this angle. I think it came off as weird for awhile, because we were so used to the previous rendering that was out there for about 10 years.

 

[MjolnirMan]

At least it's not this angle :

So I took this picture Wednesday and my comment was definitely influenced by this perspective. My brain misfired and thought "oh there's the John Hancock" but quickly corrected itself and realized oh nope, that's just the fat, featureless side of SST.
