First Steel Arrives at Boylston Street

The basement walls are nearly finished at the future Boylston Street (Boston, Mass.) retail store, and the first structural steel has arrived. Thanks to s cheung for noticing the contractor closed Boylston Street at 5 a.m. Sunday morning for the delivery, and craned in steel beam about 50-feet wide to sit atop a basement wall. A second smaller beam was installed closer to the front of the building, and some cross-beams were also installed. Most of the concrete wall forms have been removed after the concrete set. However, work continues on the walls at the rear of the building.
