This landmark mixed-use building is designed to be one of the most sustainable speculative office buildings in New England. It has a light touch on the environment, enriches its Back Bay context and enhances the quality of "the lives inside." The building is crafted to optimize the indoor environment, office planning flexibility, and building performance. 888 Boylston Street rises to the promise of its pivotal site as a reinvention of the "Commercial Palazzo", referring to the general shape and classical proportions, light-filled workspaces and a cluster of civic and commercial identities.
