At the risk of opening up a can of worms...would it have killed them to raise the mechanical screen by 10-feet and make it a 700+ foot building?!

FAA would have capped it at 697'. If you want to complain about losing out on 700'+ buildings, complain about 1 Bromfield, Hurley, North Station area, Back Bay area, and a bunch of Kendall plots including a piece of Volpe and Constellation Center.
My mistake. For some reason, I thought the FAA was giving them up to 725' on this site.
Remember how people used to cite "Manhattanization" as a terrible worry to avoid at all costs? I wonder if they object to this project's very constrained/dense site and how it comes up so close to its neighbors.
That parking garage at Franklin and Washington needs to go.
