Located on the ninth floor of the John Hancock Tower, this urban Terrace transforms a previously underutilized mechanical space into a lush green oasis, offering stunning views of the Boston and Cambridge skylines. Accessible wooden terraces with custom modular seating elements seamlessly integrate with I.M. Pei designed vent structures, framing two vibrant garden spaces. The terrace’s microclimate is enhanced by a diverse planting strategy featuring a transforming seasonal color palette.
