This building sort of reminds me of a building going up in Charlotte....to help blend the glass upper with the brick lower facade, they extended the glass curtain all the way to the street level in a portion....of course the building in Charlotte is all new construction, so it's much easier, but it would be pretty cool if they extended the metal cross beams and glass down along Congress St to create an entry atrium.

The old rendering on the left, the newest (just released) rendering on the right.

Ugh....what a huge step back. The last one was a bit awkward, but this thing is just BORING!

Apparanatly Boston Properties changed it in response to some criticism.....this is what happens when we get design by committee....watered down crap.

BP may also increase the amount of office space and reduce the amount of condo units in response to a shifting market.

In today's Herald, it is rumored that most of the office tower may be preleased by Wellington Management. It was implied that this could help speed the rate at which the tower is built.

Hopefully they will demand a better design than the last disaster presented.
