Ha! It was just a kite though. You can see the person holding it in the lower left corner of the first pic.

With the announcement of reopening dates through phase 4 between May 10 and August 1, thus the TD Garden inching back to full capacity and office spaces reopening, we may see the Hub reaching its full use - including the Hub Hall. This project reaching its full potential will be exciting

That's a sad loss I know! I never got to visit. Wonder what would replace that huge space

The "on the other side of bankruptcy" Arclight?

I gotta admit I kind of like the shape of the Verizon building on the skyline. I just hate it up close.

@shmessy , I hope you don't mind this minor revision to your quote to capture the mindset that gets me through the pandemic:

The "on the other side of bankruptcy" [...insert many things I love...]

You are more than welcome to that, BP7. I share that goal.

Would be a great wistful dream-like video of favorite establishments rising from the pandemic graveyard to exist again..........

Verizon sells AOL and Yahoo for about half of what it paid

Purchased by the owner of the Venetian casino in Las Vegas

So... is this staying the Verizon tower? I believe VMG is the tenant.

Verizon retains a 10 percent stake. I think Apollo will re-brand it, and to something other than Oath.

^ so, basically, the dynamism of this tower's branding will likely fit in nicely with its Shawmut Center / Fleet Center / TDBanknorth Garden / TD Garden neighbor.

I think there's enough equity in the Yahoo name (mostly because of Fantasy Football) that the whole thing will be renamed "Yahoo".

Iconic for 20 years, taken down in 2019.

Rebrand the tower Shawmut for the proper old-school vibe.
