www.privateairny.com Private Air | Summer 2021 90 REAL ESTATE F our Seasons Hotel & Private Residences One Dalton Street, Boston, a new five-star hotel and luxury condominium in the city's historic Back Bay neighborhood, is now complete. e architectural standout, designed by the late Harry Cobb of Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, stands as the tallest residential building in New England and the tallest building constructed in Boston in over 40 years. Cobb's illustrious career also includes Boston's tallest building, then known as the John Hancock Tower (now 200 Clarendon Street), and completed in 1976, meaning Cobb designed the last two tallest buildings built in his home city, decades apart. Open to hotel guests and residents, One Dalton has become a transformative presence on the Boston skyline. Working with Cambridge Seven Associates, Cobb crafted a modern skyscraper inspired by both Boston's storied history and its progressive future. Its "soft triangle" sculptural form rises from a solid granite base and strategically creates sweeping views while reducing corridors to offer residents ultimate privacy. "Unlike any skyscraper ever built in Boston, One Dalton elevates the architectural reputation and standard of luxury living in this city to new heights," said Richard L. Friedman, President and CEO of Carpenter & Company, lead developer of One Dalton. "We are grateful to have worked closely with Harry Cobb, one of the world's greatest architects, on the tower that cements his incredible legacy in Boston and anchors the 'High Spine' of the Back Bay. Watching this tower make its mark on Boston has been extremely rewarding, and we're pleased to continue seeing such a positive response." e private residences atop the 215-room five-star Four Seasons Hotel enjoy this new Boston flagship's complete services and amenities from the world's leading hospitality brand.
