The Boston Government Service Center is a Brutalist complex in downtown Boston designed by Paul Rudolph. Comprising two connected buildings—the Charles F. Hurley Building and the Erich Lindemann Building—along with a courtyard, the center exemplifies the bold geometric forms and massive concrete construction characteristic of the Brutalist style. Located in the West End, it serves as a major component of the broader Government Center complex and is eligible for listing on both the Massachusetts Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places. Though recognized for its architectural significance and association with Rudolph's influential design, the complex has not yet received formal landmark designation.
