An iconic 51-story tower over Boston's historic South Station

South Station Redevelopment

Phase One of this project consisted of 25 office floors of approximately 700,000 square feet and 16 residential floors encompassing approximately 300,000 square feet and 166 units into the existing South Station Transportation Center. The Tower includes office and residential sky lobbies, and a residential lobby on Atlantic Avenue adjacent to the office lobby. There are also amenities for both the office and residential components on the first tower floor above the office/mechanical space as well as on the residential sky lobby level. Phase Two consisted of the construction of a new building, built on top of the Phase One overbuild adjacent to the Tower. Phase Three consisted of the construction of a new parking structure. This phase of the project was built over the existing South Station bus terminal and sits adjacent to the Phase Two residential building.
