John Hancock


This is the headquarters of the John Hancock Insurance Co. in Boston. Their previous building was the 62 story tower in the Back Bay on Clarendon St. You can see the 62 story glass tower and the original Hancock building in this 2008 picture. Hancock sold the tower in 2004 and downsized to this new building on Congress St. in the Seaport District. More from the Boston Globe.

At one time, one of the busiest restaurants in the country, Anthony's Pier 4 Restaurant on Northern Avenue is closed and soon scheduled for demolition. It will be replaced by a 21 story apartment and retail tower in the rapidly changing Seaport district of Boston.
