Are those condos on Alewife Brook Pkwy?

Driving down the Alewife Brook Parkway the other day, I had a WTF? millisecond looking at these as I willed my car to stay in it's narrow little lane while traffic whooshed past. Needless to say, I didn't get a good look, but I don't remember them having been there at all. They're somewhere near the Mobil and that cool ivy-covered mystery building. They're set back quite a way from the road, but tall. Anybody know what they're about?

can you be more specific? I don't know where "the Mobil" or "the ivy-covered mystery building" are.

I believe that building is MWRA-related, some kind of pump-house or water related facility.

Yes, it looks like a pump house to me, too
