New Hotel proposed on Second Avenue http://waltham.wickedlocal.com/article/20150415/NEWS/150417727

Must be well over 1000 hotel rooms at the Winter St / Wyman intersection already -- about 1/2 in the lower price range

Perhaps its time for the Westin to grab the ball and do an expansion to lock-in its place as the dominant venue in the suburbs -- it needs to expand its Ballroom / Exhibition space by about 50% [current full use capacity is for about 450 to 500 attendees] and add another tower with 150 or so rooms

Work continues on the two sites on Third Ave.

Looks like the restaurants are approaching completion, they have started paving the lot.

Hard to see, but the building takes a turn and extends towards the hillside.

Also, it appears an extension to 5th Ave has been graded towards the Market Basket site. (Sorry, didn't take a picture.)

Steel is going up on the first building closest to Third Avenue. Site work is still being done where the parking garage and 2nd office building will be located closest to the Hilton. I will try to take some photos of it soon when I have time. This is also called 10 City Point and is being done by Boston Properties.

That tower crane you see is for another office development at 130 & 180 Third Avenue. Those will be 4-story and 6-story office buildings. Both of those and the 99 Third Avenue building where a retail plaza will be located are all part of City Point and being built by Boston Properties.

Are there any renderings of 130 & 180 Third Ave? Boston Properties website only has reference to 99 Third Ave.
 
Perhaps 5th Ave Extended?

I feel bad for people who will work in these buildings. What an isolating, sad place.
 
Yes. This is the worst, most auto-centric part of Waltham. A very unwelcoming place to any people who aren't currently inhabiting a motor vehicle.
