2010 Honor Award for Architecture

Apple Store, Boylston Street, Boston, MA

Architect: Bohlin Cywinski Jackson

The Boylston Street Apple Store stands between Boston’s 19th Century Back Bay residential neighborhood to the north and superblock developments to the south. This section of Boylston Street is characterized by an architectural heterogeneity that contrasts with the otherwise relatively homogenous Back Bay. The new Apple Store is a glass box cut to the proportions and articulations of the historic neighborhood.
