The Alcott (née Garden Garage Towers) | 35 Lomasney Way | West End

[Lrfox]

A friend of mine is foreman on this project. They've got a small team on site preparing to resume construction in a week or so. This is different from the small crews that have been there securing the site during the shut down. I'm sure this is dependent on what the Gov. decides for 5/18 if the numbers keep trending the way they are, but it's a nice crumb of optimism.

@kz1000ps, I missed your photographs so much! While I wish you were here under better circumstances, having your work to look at has been a silver lining to this whole affair.

Thanks for the kind words, Downburst. Trust me, getting to wander around has become a silver lining for me as well. I love NYC but Boston is soooo much more photogenic, ESPECIALLY at this time of year

I have been following this on the webcam and can confirm that yesterday was the first day this resumed vertical construction! They're laying the forms to pour what I believe will be the 14th floor.

View 4 is probably the best one at this point: https://app.oxblue.com/open/EQR/WestEndTower

Thanks so much for reminding us that there *is* a series of views to watch! Nice to hear the news.

So much of the concrete overhang aesthetic is kids who graduated from architecture school 20 years ago finally trying to show off. #architectureisdead

Walked by the back side of the site today. Lots of activity!

Cant wait to see how this fills out the new cluster. It actually may end up being one of the better towers over here, seeing that the competition is pretty mediocre. Either way I cant wait to see how this area along with one congress rising in the background turns out.

The Alcott is starting to peak through, just as the Sudbury settles into its new place on the skyline

6/15 from Symmes Arlington. It will mostly block the Bulfinch Residential from this angle (maybe State Street too).
