The uniquely shaped control tower of Boston's Logan International Airport. Contains about six floors of office space (and formerly, until 1989, an observation deck) with the ATC center on the top.

Nestled into spot at the Central Parking Garage.

Affectionately referred to as "The Robot" for its resemblance to a sci-fi robot.

Home of Boston John.

  • I visited the observation deck in'82...awsome. I had my scanner with me and that made it all the more fascinating. I lived in New York from 1944 to 1965 and watched the planes fly overhead headed to LaGuardia. I remember seeing a flying boat once and a "connie" with a featherd engine. I used to tune an old fm tube radio up to 108 and tweak it so I coud pick up aircraft. I have a passion for anything that flies. I once saw an old For tri-motor fly over the water in Danbury Conn. I have some great memories.
