Hub50House is a striking addition to The Hub on Causeway, a mixed-use, multi-phased development. Capitalizing on its height and views of the Charles River and downtown Boston, the 380,000-square-foot, 38-story tower elegantly steps outward on the site’s north side to maximize the number units with views to the city. The diversity of uses within The Hub on Causeway is echoed in the diversity of unit types offered in the residential tower’s 440 apartments, ranging from “metro” units to three-bedroom residences. With floor-to-ceiling glazing in each unit, the design brings a unique urban living experience to downtown Boston.
To differentiate the residential tower from the larger project, the tower cantilevers over the retail base, offering a visual break between the two masses. The design utilizes two different shades of glass to visually break up the mass of the tower, as well as to highlight the social / community amenities located throughout the building.
