    I was looking at Boston architecture and I love the buildings in the city

    but I noticed this beautiful building is in a very bad place

    It’s litterally covered by a hideous building so long that it looks it was made just with the purpose of hiding it

    I mean, really, what’s the reason? who taught it was a good idea?
