Amazon to Lease Additional 630K-SF Office Space in Boston Seaport

WS Development has secured a 630,000-square-foot office lease with Amazon at the company’s 33-acre Boston Seaport development.

The signing marks Amazon’s second full-building lease in the Seaport, joining 111 Harbor Way, a 525,000-square foot building now under construction by WS Development, which will be completed later this year and will bring 2,000 new technology jobs to Boston.

With the expansion, Amazon will continue to grow its workforce in Boston and create 3,000 tech and corporate jobs over the next several years, including growth in the Alexa, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Amazon Robotics, and Amazon Pharmacy teams. The development will be constructed at One Boston Wharf Road and is a 17-story, 707,000-square-foot, mixed-use building. Construction will commence later this year with completion in 2024.

“We are proud to continue our partnership with Amazon in Boston’s Seaport, a neighborhood that has grown to serve forward-thinking employers, residents, and retailers and that is now a global hub of innovation and talent,” said Jeremy Sclar, CEO at WS Development.
