And here I’ve been neglecting the whole ‘back side’! I believe the lobby connects Devonshire to Federal St.
Something strange about the wording. It's not going to be certified by the sound of it, just "use passive house design." Also, if I recall correctly, only the office is passive (or the other way around).
Certainly seems like it's on track!Here’s the text, sounds like certified?
“ On Tuesday the building passed a series of tests to become certified by the Passive House Institute in Germany. It was also awarded The Passive House Trailblazer award.
“When we started this back in 2017, I think there were probably a handful of passive U.S.-certified buildings here in Massachusetts. And they were small and they were residential,” Mahoney said.”

(In all seriousness, there's a very large and conspicuous "EMERSON" decal stenciled on the Arch Street doorway. From there it was just a matter of Googling "Emerson" and "Arch" together. Very first hit.)

The UDG on the first floor used to be a CVS. The ugly facade is now crumbling. A perfect cover!
For decades it was the Bond Shoe Store, a familiar sight near Jordan Marsh.Bro, do you even bench? Clearly not--or at least, not in DTX, otherwise you'd be seeing all the hulking specimens that comprise Emerson College's legendary football powerhouse going in there constantly to get diesel.
