^ That aerial makes it look like they might be starting construction on the residential portions!? Or is that stuff on the residential building sites just spillover from other construction?

That site's been fenced off for at least 2 years now. Don't think it's anything to get excited about yet.
 
Re: Fan Pier

Yup it's been a staging area for years.

Re: Fan Pier

A couple items of note:
1. Site prep happening at the residential buildings' sites. Turner has a sign posted now as well.
2. The two trailers next to Louis - a boat building school(?) and a sailing school.

 
Re: Fan Pier

What floor is that from? I once was in one of the conference rooms on the top (or very close to top) floor...great views from there.
 
Re: Fan Pier

It was taken from the lobby of Robert Half. 20th floor of 125 High Street.

Joe Fallon mulls sale of Vertex headquarters

Joe Fallon will sell the two Vertex towers on Fan Pier at the right price, sources say.


Fan Pier developer Joseph Fallon, whose gleaming waterfront towers helped launch a tidal wave of development in Boston’s Seaport District, could get an offer he can’t refuse.

Commercial real estate sources say several firms are “kicking the tires” of Fallon’s 1.1-million-square-foot office waterfront complex expected to be completed next year for Vertex Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: VRTX). The Cambridge-based company is preparing to move its headquarters to the pair of 18-story buildings on Fan Pier next year.

Sources familiar with the deal said the Hub developer didn’t set out to list the properties with a commercial real estate firm. But when several buyers showed interest, Fallon hired real-estate firm HFF to talk with the potential buyers.

“If everyone is just kicking the tires and low-balling it, Joe won’t do anything because he doesn’t have to,” one source

I called it.......Do you think he will refund the taxpayers on the sale.

And this is why the city Architecture is SHIT. Why build for pride and value when you can make a quick buck on the backs of the taxpayers.

Re: Fan Pier

Huh. They removed the "T" on the one with the angled side. Signage troubles?
