What Lurks Below: The Geotechnical Intrigue of Boston’s Back Bay
In 1858, the great filling of Back Bay began. Completed in about 20 years, it led to nearly 100 city blocks of iconic 4- and 5-story brick rowhouses. In the past 60 years, about 50 high-rise buildings have sprouted along the “spine” of Back Bay. No matter the size, all have had to accommodate the geotechnical intrigue of Boston’s Back Bay.
