111 Huntington Avenue, Postmodern skyscraper in Back Bay, Boston, United States.
The 111 Huntington Avenue building reaches 554 feet in height with 36 floors of blue glass curtain walls and a distinctive dome structure.
The construction of this Massachusetts tower, completed in 2002, underwent design modifications following direct intervention from Boston Mayor Thomas Menino regarding its roof structure.
Local residents gave the building the name R2-D2 Building due to its top section bearing similarities to the Star Wars character's appearance.
The building contains office spaces for multiple corporations, connecting directly to the Prudential Center retail mall through convenient entry points.
The structure features a lobby waterfall installation complemented by reflective black marble walls and wooden panels throughout the entrance area.
