This is a perspective of the Sam Adams statue looking towards the church. Banded by a wall of trees, which are banded by a wall of brick buildings that come up to about the height of the trunks. Different materials are used for the ground floor plan to guide people from one end of the park to another.
Looking towards the hotel. Here I was practicing the perspective of windows on the facade. The buildings on either side of the street act as walls and frame a picture of the hotel and lead right to it. The hotel has a transparent feel because you can see right to the water. The hotel has layers that step down towards the street and cut outs that lead you through the building.
Here the Quincy Marketplace is on the left and we are looking down the south market. Notice the differences in the brick pattern on the ground. Vegetation and street lights guides your way down the strip. To the right, there are shops that are recessed in the facade or are flushed. The height of that building is shorter than the marketplace but is level with the top floor before the dome. Quincy market is only three floors and steps up in elevation as it moves towards the center, the dome being the highest point and the central focus. This is where seating and stairs are located inside the marketplace.
Looking towards Faneuil Hall Marketplace
