Tucked between the former Hancock Tower and 100 Clarendon parking garage, the future home of the $400 million Raffles Boston Back Bay Hotel & Residences has literally kept a low profile since site work began in mid-2019.
That’s starting to change, as a rapid phase of vertical construction will clear the way for projected completion in the third quarter of 2022.
“People hear about a groundbreaking and then they don’t see anything for an extended period of time,” developer Jordan Warshaw noted during a recent phone call. “Maybe 30 to 40 percent of the construction schedule is before a piece of steel comes above the ground.”
