Prudential Tower

The Prudential Tower, also known as the Prudential Building or, colloquially, The Pru, is an International Style skyscraper in Boston, Massachusetts. The building, a part of the Prudential Center complex, currently stands as the 2nd-tallest building in Boston, behind 200 Clarendon Street, formerly the John Hancock Tower. The Prudential Tower was designed by Charles Luckman and Associates for Prudential Insurance. Completed in 1964, the building is 749 feet tall, with 52 floors, and is tied with others as the 96th-tallest in the United States. It contains 1,200,000 sq ft of commercial and retail space. Including its radio mast, the tower stands as the tallest building in Boston, rising to 907 feet in height.

Both the restaurant, the Top of the Hub, which occupies the 52nd floor, and the Skywalk Observatory on the 50th floor are scheduled to close on 18 April 2020. A 50th-floor observation deck is currently the highest observation deck in New England open to the public, as the higher observation deck of 200 Clarendon Street has been closed since the terror attacks of September 11, 2001.
