South Station Tower is a proposed skyscraper intended for construction in Boston, Massachusetts. The tower by design would rise 621 feet (189 m), with 41 floors and consist of a hotel, condominium units, office space, and a parking structure. It would be built atop Boston's historic South Station complex, an example of "transit-oriented development." The property was developed by Hines Interests and TUDC, a subsidiary of Tufts University.
South Station Tower was planned to break ground in 2008, with completion scheduled to occur in 2010, but the project stalled and has not reached development. Approval has been obtained for a project totaling 2,190,000 square feet (203,000 m2).
