Framing Begins on Route 128 Lab Development in Waltham
Callahan Construction Managers (Callahan), a full-service construction management company, announced site work has been completed and structural steel installation is underway at 300 3rd Avenue in Waltham, MA, which will be a 140,000-square-foot life sciences building with four stories of flexible and customizable office and laboratory space. Callahan is the construction manager for the project, which is being developed by Lincoln Property Company and was designed by architect DiMella Shaffer.
300 3rd Avenue will feature an expansive glass curtain wall that will wrap the façade, which faces the Route 128 corridor. Each floor will span 35,000 feet and will have bright light and expansive views from each of the workspaces. The building’s poured concrete foundation and steel frame concrete deck will be juxtaposed by a glass entrance accented by a natural wood ceiling, along with custom lighting. Finally, the building will include five levels of parking, two above grade and three below, as well as a mechanical penthouse and roof deck.
“This innovative and complex project is a significant addition to our company’s growing life sciences portfolio, as Boston’s life science market continues to lead the industry,” said Patrick Callahan, President of Callahan Construction Managers. “We look forward to delivering 300 3rd Ave and our continued collaboration with our project partners.”
Waltham has emerged as one of Greater Boston’s most dynamic life sciences clusters. 300 3rd Avenue is located only 10 miles from Cambridge and Boston and is conveniently located off exit 27A on Route 128/I-95. Corporate neighbors include ThermoFisher, Sanofi, AstraZeneca, Shire, Deciphera, GSK, Alkermes, Immugen, PerkinElmer, Visterra and Exosome Dx.
The upcoming lab/R&D building will feature 139,750 SF of space with 35,000 square feet of rentable space per floor, with 441 on-site parking spaces overlooking Route 128 in Waltham.
