The MassArt building on the other side of Huntington Avenue exposes its structure on this corner to the street. The scale of this exposure, however, leads to questions about its true purpose. This detail seems to be quite reminiscent of what the building's aim might be: The black of the glass oozes down from the heavens, and it is the exposed structure which is able to keep the weight of the world at bay so that future generations can gain entry into the art world. Or perhaps it is so they can get out? The true answer probably lies in that black miasma that is the building's facade.
