WOW! Boston moving incrementally skyward.

Looks pretty good, especially with the pinstripes.

This tower is looking great! I have to say a big finally to this happening

The architecture of the first Four Seasons is really nothing to brag about.

[DZH22]

Prep work is now under way on both of these towers. The taller one will be 699' + mech, so expected to be around 730' total maybe. (kind of like how Millennium Tower was announced at 625' and it turns out it will be 685')

Hopefully we'll know the full official height soon. Either way this will become the city's 3rd tallest, just ahead of the U/C Millennium Tower.

[DZH22]

This sucker officially breaks ground tomorrow. Still unsure of the finalized height with mechanicals.

Here's an additional render. Haven't seen this one before.

Breaking ground today. Not sure if the Globe's standard for u/c is the same as ssp's but afaik this should be put to the u/c thread? Either way its really exciting because this tower will be, in one word, transformative.

If it's going to be a minimum of ~700 why not just make it the tallest in the city? Just add a crown

I don't think I could passionately hate the FAA even more, bunch of nosy dirtbags

Holy crap. Game changer!

Too bad I don't own my West Brookline St. pad anymore. That roofdeck would have been an awesome spot to watch this one rise.

[DZH22]

From 4/26
Visible progress with the digging!

Bump

[DZH22]

From 5/31 The red crane is for the 285' tower. This one is still digging in the foreground.

[1Boston]

Drove into Boston and noticed this and realized that it was probably this going up, I think its the 600 ft tower, I feel like it should have its own thread by now.., or at least be moved to the construction thread as it's clearly made a lot of progress.

[Downburst]

That is a different tower that is part of the Prudential Center and will only rise to about 300 feet. From that angle, the upcoming Christian Science Center building would be rising behind the Prudential Tower.

Excavation for that larger tower is ongoing (and the smaller 251' tower that's part of the project is already rising) but I don't think the big one meets SSP's requirements for under construction yet. Soon, though.

I think the smaller one is 285' now. Obviously the title of this thread has been wrong for a while. Of course, if the taller one is really 699' plus mech, we don't technically know the official height on it anyway. Keeping my fingers crossed for 720'.

[scalziand]

This could probably be moved to construction at this point.
