==History==
Built in 1986, the building is named after Thomas Phillip "Tip" O'Neill, Jr. (1912-1994), Speaker of the House of Representatives from 1977 to 1987. It replaced the Madison Hotel (formerly Hotel Manger, from the building's opening in 1930 to 1958), a buff-brick Art Deco landmark that hosted visiting NBA and NHL teams when they challenged the Boston Celtics basketball team and the Boston Bruins hockey team in the adjacent Boston Garden. The Beatles also stayed at the Madison Hotel when in town for a Boston Garden concert in 1964. By the 1970s, many of the hotel's 400-plus rooms were housing homeless and low-income people. The Madison closed in 1976 and was imploded on May 1, 1986.〔http://www.gsa.gov/graphics/regions/oneillmore.pdf〕
