IT IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE BUILDING IN BOSTON.
SHAYNA: 742 FEET, ONE DALTON, WHERE RESIDENTS ARE LITERALLY ON TOP OF THE WORLD.
>> ON A GOOD DAY YOU CAN SEE CAPE COD.
SHAYNA: CEO OF CARPENTER COMPANY, A DEVELOPMENT COMPANY BEHIND THESE VIEWS.
NOT SURPRISINGLY WHEN CHANGING BOSTON’S SKYLINE, HE CALLED ON SOMEONE WHO HAS DONE IT BEFORE.
>> THE MEN FROM THE JOHN HANCOCK, IN HIS EARLY 90’S, JOKES HE IS IN MIDCAREER.
BOSTON IS OLD AND NEW BEING MIXED.
THAT IS A PART OF THE DNA OF THIS PROJECT.
SHAYNA: ALSO IN THE DNA, FIVE-STAR AMENITIES THAT MAKE EVERY DAY A STAYCATION.
>> THE IDEA OF ROOM SERVICE AT ALL HOURS IS ATTRACTIVE.
IT IS FUN.
YOU WANT TO GO TO THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER ROLLING STONES CONCERT, ALL OF IT CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF.
SHAYNA: AND DIRECT ACCESS TO THE FOUR SEASONS SPOT AND RESTAURANTS, NO WONDER WHY THE BUILDING CREATOR IS -- HOLDING’S CREATOR IS ONE OF ITS FIRST RESIDENCE.
>> VERY FEW DEVELOPERS HAVE THE GUTS OR STUPIDITY TO LIVE IN THEIR OWN BUILDINGS.
I LOVE THE BUILDING.
SHAYNA: DON’T LOOK FOR HIM UP HERE.
>> I CAN’T AFFORD THE PENTHOUSE.
THE VIEWS ARE GREAT EVERYWHERE.
SHAYNA: ONE PENTHOUSE SOLD BEFORE IT WAS EVEN FINISHED FOR $40 MILLION.
AS THE FLOORS DROP, SO DO THE PRICE TAGS TO ABOUT $2 MILLION.
STILL OUT OF YOUR BUDGET?
REALTORS LIKE I HURT REAL ESTATE’S CAN HELP YOU GET HIGH FOR LESS.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
SHAYNA: VALENTINE’S DAY HIS POPULAR HERE.
CHRISTMAS IS NEVER OUT OF SEASON.
THE GIFTS ARE QUIET AND A CLEAR ROUTE THAT BRINGS YOU CLOSER TO NATURE.
>> PEOPLE SAY I HOPE IT RAINS.
MY BIGGEST CONCERN WAS PEOPLE WOULD HAVE TROUBLE SLEEPING BECAUSE IT IS WINDY, THE PLACE IS MOVING.
I GET JUST THE OPPOSITE.
I NEVER HEARD A SINGLE PERSON -- THE BEST NIGHTS SLEEP.
SHAYNA: DREAMS OF SIMPLER TIMES.
>> EVERYBODY WANTED A TREEHOUSE.
THAT IS WHY I BUILT IT.
PEOPLE TURN INTO LITTLE KIDS WHEN THEY COME HERE HONESTLY.
SHAYNA: WHAT KID DOES NOT LIKE A GOOD STORY?
HE HAS A NEW BOOK FOR GUESTS TO SHARE STORIES SOME OF WHICH ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD.
>> PEOPLE KNOCKING ON THE DOOR AND OPENED THE CURTAIN AND THERE WAS MANY BLACK GUYS.
THEY SAID THEY SAW A LIGHT LIKE A UFO.
SHAYNA: HE HAS NOT SEEN ONE, BUT THE ANSWER COULD BE AMONGST THE TREES.
SLEEPING AT 30 FEET ABOVE THE FOREST FLOOR IS SURE TO INSPIRE SOME TALL TALES.
>> THE PROCESS OF BUILDING THAT TREEHOUSE WAS ABOUT AS SLOW AS WATCHING A TREE GROW.
SHAYNA: IT WAS MADE FROM DONATED WOULD.
IT WAS UNTOUCHED FOR TWO YEARS WAITING FOR THE WOOD, AND ANOTHER YEAR TO FINISH THE TREEHOUSE.
HE SAID CLIMBING EXPERIENCE HELPED HIM FINISH THE TREE.
