Plans call for a 335,000-square-foot building containing laboratory/R&D and offices, as well as ground floor space for retail, restaurant, civic, and/or cultural uses. The development will feature a host of community benefits, including a city street extension, improvements to the Harborwalk and approximately 1.5 acres of publicly accessible open space along the Fort Point Channel waterfront.
Resiliency Initiatives include:
Improvements to the public realm will include reducing impervious areas and introducing green infrastructure into the design, such as rain gardens and increased landscaping using biodiverse planting.
The development will help to provide a continuous elevated grade at the proposed berm design level that both ties into future resiliency plans on each of the neighboring properties and integrates seamlessly into the landscape design while also allowing for greater accessibility and view corridors.
