One Post Office Square is a 42-floor modern skyscraper in the Financial District section of Boston, Massachusetts. The skyscraper is Boston's 14th-tallest building, standing 525 feet (160 m) tall. The building has exactly 831,975 square feet of Class A office space. An attached, eight-level parking garage offers 368 parking spaces and direct access to the building's lobby. [2] It overlooks Post Office Square Park and was designed by Jung Brannen Associates. A previous building on the site at 101 Milk Street was the headquarters of the Boston Elevated Railway until about 1919. [3]
The exterior is modern style sculpted tower that consists of a steel frame with a concrete aggregate facade. [2]
The three-story lobby is finished in patterned Rosso Verona and travertine marble walls and floors accented with mirror bronze signage, hand rails, and window bands. [2] HVAC is controlled by an automated, Energy Management System for maximum comfort and efficiency. [4] The building is connected to the adjoining Langham Hotel at ground level by a private passageway. [5]
In 2018, the building began renovations to update the exterior of the building and add additional space. The project is set to be complete in 2021. [6]
