Besides a refresh of furniture, soft goods, and presentation technology the project added artistic elements across the property, including in prefunction spaces outside the 2,500-square-foot mini-ballroom. Custom murals throughout the property alternate between post-modern multicultural designs and references to the original rebels of Boston: its colonial inhabitants. And in the event space, a bold, large-scale graphic piece from local artist Cedric Douglas—a portrayal of outstretched hands—evokes human connection. There’s also generous use of wood and granite elements throughout. In the breakout spaces, floor-to-ceiling windows provide panoramic views of the neighborhood, which is home to several live-performance theaters.
