The project’s initial phase is expected to be delivered in 2024. It will feature around 166 residential condominium units and over 500 parking spaces, as well as offering around 660,000ft² of office and retail space for rent.
Pelli Clark Pelli Architects designed the faceted oval glass tower, which will be built to align with the South Station façade.
The office component will feature 26,000ft² of primarily column-free floor plates with 13in floor-to-ceiling heights.
The tower’s residential component will include studios and units with one, two and three bedrooms, as well as penthouse duplex units.
