Harbor Towers, Residential skyscraper in Boston's waterfront, United States

Harbor Towers consists of two residential buildings reaching 40 stories, with Harbor Tower I measuring 400 feet and Harbor Tower II reaching 396 feet.

Henry N. Cobb from I. M. Pei & Partners designed these residential towers in 1971, transforming a former warehouse district into modern living spaces.

The concrete architecture of Harbor Towers represents the 1970s brutalist movement, featuring a distinctive pinwheel layout around a central core structure.

The buildings contain over 600 condominium units, ranging from one to four bedrooms, with prices starting at $650,000 and reaching up to $2.9 million.

At the towers' base stands a 1964 stainless steel sculpture titled 'Untitled Landscape' by David von Schlegell, frequently mistaken for solar panels.
