Kicking Back the Pebbles

A big girl's notes on home - cuisine - travel - life

The Prudential Center Tower Skywalk Observatory

October 10, 2014 - Leave a Comment

This summer, in 10 posts: post 9 {Boston}

“The Prudential Tower, also known as the Prudential Building or, colloquially, The Pru,  is a skyscraper in Boston, Massachusetts. The building, a part of the Prudential Center complex, currently stands as the 2nd-tallest building in Boston, behind the John Hancock Tower. The Prudential Tower was designed by Charles Luckman & Associates for Prudential Insurance. Completed in 1964, the building is 749 feet (228 m) tall, with 52 floors. It contains 1,200,000 sq ft (110,000 m2) of commercial and retail space. Including its radio mast, the tower stands as the tallest building in Boston and is tied with others as the 77th-tallest in the United States, rising to 907 feet (276 m) in height. A 50th-floor observation deck, called the Skywalk Observatory, is currently the highest observation deck in New England open to the public, as the higher observation deck of the John Hancock Tower has been closed since the terror attacks of September 11, 2001. A restaurant, The Top of the Hub, occupies the 52nd floor.” I hope you enjoy the views (and excuse the vertically aligned snippet!).

O ουρανοξύστης του συγκροτήματος Prudential Center είναι το 2ο ψηλότερο κτήριο στη Βοστώνη, μετά το John Hancock. Σχεδιάστηκε από το αρχιτεκτονικό γραφείο Charles Luckman & Associates για λογαριασμό της Prudential Insurance. Ολοκληρώθηκε το 1964, έχει ύψος 228 μ., 52 ορόφους και απαρτίζεται από 110.000 m2 εμπορικών καταστήματων και γραφείων. Εάν υπολογίσουμε τη ραδιοφωνική του κεραία φτάνει στα 276 μ. ύψος και περνάει πρώτος στη Βοστώνη και 77ος στις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες. Το Παρατηρητήριο στον 50ο όροφο, που ονομάζεται  Skywalk Observatory, είναι σήμερα το υψηλότερο ανοιχτό για το κοινό παρατηρητήριο στη Νέα Αγγλία, καθώς το πραγματικά  υψηλότερο παρατηρητήριο του John Hancock Tower παραμένει κλειστό μετά από τις τρομοκρατικές επιθέσεις της 11ης Σεπτεμβρίου, 2001. Στο 52ο πάτωμα βρίσκεται το εστιατόριο Top of the Hub. Ελπίζω να απολαύσετε τη θέα!

“When summer's end is nighing And skies at eve “When summer's end is nighing
 And skies at evening cloud,
I muse on change and fortune
 And all the feats I vowed
 When I was young and proud.”
—A.E. Housman, verse from 𝘟𝘟𝘟𝘐𝘟, Last Poems (1922)
