... lets not forget that it took the pru decades to be what it is today. Thats the best i can hope for Waterside place....that it will somehow be improved upon 30 years down the road.
How sad is it that, after the Pru and Copley Place, no one can get it right the first time around?
Egad, this isn't even the inland Back Bay. It's the waterfront! Isn't there an attraction to having streets and stores and restaurants out in the open? They deliberately chose not to go this route on Fan Pier. Granted, this property isn't directly fronting the harbor, but it's barely a block away, and it's called Waterside Place! This building fails to respond either to the harbor or the city. It may as well be built in Burlington.
Also in that picture, what is the green building in the background??
The mysterious, narrow "Congress Street hotel" project.
