I thought Boston canceled that project?

Anyways in a hypothetical situation as Philadelphia is still working on getting their approved, and Boston is apparently canceled I'll have to state in a sense as if both were to be built today.

I would give this to Philadelphia. Because from that angle, the one in Boston just looks so plain. Anyone got other angle pictures?

Well they didnt cancel it they are just talking about how the tower will be built because the tower might be to high for the air restrictions

I don't think either will get built but it sounds like the ACC has a better chance, even if less than 50%.

ACC is negotiating with GSK, but part of this decision would be moving more folks from their RDU facility and consolidating in downtown Philly

Does it have a name? Who's the architect?

This would PROPEL puritan Boston past every American city. Put it in the same category as a London.
