the verizon tower joins one federal, one beacon, and the mccormack as the most aggressively offensive buildings in the city -- and this one is more distractingly disgusting b/c of its prominence in the cluster it occupies. the only good outcome would be if this building were to be found to be structurally or otherwise unsound after the fact and the whole gross mess torn down. this thing would be an eyesore in albany or louisville and it makes boston look terrible.
