Design
left|thumb|111 Huntington Avenue is seen unobstructed from the South End in Boston. Behind it is the Prudential Tower.
The 36-story tower, constructed by John Moriarty & Associates, Inc, is capped by an open-frame dome and crown which is illuminated at night. The building's original design called for a flat roof, but Boston Mayor Thomas Menino objected; Menino chose the present design from among several options the developer subsequently proposed.http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/08/23/the_city_the_mayor_painstakingly_built/?page=3 The city the mayor (painstakingly) built The Boston Globe August 25, 2009 August 23, 2009 https://web.archive.org/web/20090826173351/http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/08/23/the_city_the_mayor_painstakingly_built/?page=3 26 August 2009
The postmodern facade consists of a blue glass curtain wall designed by the architect firm Childs Bertman Tseckares Inc. (CBT). The lobby interior consists of reflective black marble walls with finished wood paneling and a dramatic lobby waterfall. It can be accessed from the adjacent Prudential retail mall, and includes a number of energy-efficient features.http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=labeled_buildings.showProfile&profile_id=1000182 ENERGY STAR Labeled Building Profile Energystar.gov February 11, 2012 March 23, 2012 https://web.archive.org/web/20120323090824/http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=labeled_buildings.showProfile&profile_id=1000182 dead
