Skyline of Boston's Back Bay
Skyline of Boston's Financial District

This list of tallest buildings in Boston ranks skyscrapers in the U.S. city of Boston, Massachusetts by height. The tallest structure in the city is the 60-story Hancock Place, better known to locals as the John Hancock Tower, which rises 790 feet (241 m) in Boston's Back Bay district.[1] Hancock Place is also the 46th-tallest building in the United States. The second-tallest building in Boston is the Prudential Tower, which is Vorlage:Convert high.[2]

Boston's history of skyscrapers began with the completion in 1893 of the 13-story Ames Building, which is considered to be the city's first high-rise.[3] Boston went through a major building boom in the 1960s and 1970s, resulting in the construction of over 20 skyscrapers, including Hancock Place and the Prudential Tower. The city is the site of 16 skyscrapers that rise at least 500 feet (152 m) in height, more than any other city in New England. Based on existing and under-construction buildings over Vorlage:Convert tall), the skyline of Boston is ranked second in the Northeast (after New York City) and tenth in the United States.Vorlage:Ref label

As of June 2008, Boston has three major proposals to build skyscrapers within the next five years. The largest of these proposals is Trans National Place, which, if constructed, would become the new tallest building in the city at 1,175 feet (358 m). If built, the skyscraper would also rank among the tallest in the United States;[4] only three existing buildings in the country are taller. Another proposal is the South Bay Tower, which, at 800 feet (244 m), would become the city's second-tallest structure.[5] A third major proposal for the city is the South Station Tower, which would become the city's fifth-tallest building, assuming that both Trans National Place and the South Bay Tower are constructed.[6]

Tallest buildings by pinnacle height

When measuring by pinnacle height, One Financial Center is the 3rd-tallest building in Boston.

This list ranks Boston skyscrapers based on their pinnacle height, which includes radio masts and antennas. As architectural features and spires can be regarded as subjective, some skyscraper enthusiasts prefer this method of measurement. Standard architectural height measurement, which excludes antennas in building height, is included for comparative purposes.

Timeline of tallest buildings

Built in 1915, the Custom House Tower is Boston's 17th-tallest building and one of the city's oldest skyscrapers. The tower was Boston's tallest building for 49 years, from 1915 until 1964.

For most of Boston's earlier years, the tallest buildings in the city were churches with their steeples. The first skyscraper in the city is usually regarded to be the Ames Building, completed in 1893.[3] However, since the 13-story building did not surpass the steeple of the Church of the Covenant,[101] it never became a city record holder. The first skyscraper to have the distinction of being Boston's tallest building was the Custom House Tower, completed in 1915.[53]
