Davis, Boston Development Group Break Ground on Watertown Lab Project
The Davis Companies and Boston Development Group have broken ground on 66 Galen St. in Watertown, MA, a 224,000-square-foot, purpose-built, Class A life science building designed by Elkus Manfredi Architects. First announced this past spring, the project marks Phase One of a two-part campus plan that will include more than 450,000 square feet of dedicated lab space across two new Class A life science buildings.
“The Galen Street campus will be an outstanding opportunity for its occupants, both operationally and from a people perspective,” said aid Mike Cantalupa, Davis’ chief development officer. “We’ve collaborated with the Town of Watertown and Elkus Manfredi to ensure that the buildings are strategically designed to provide everything needed for the next generation of lab users.”
With the addition of 66 Galen, Watertown also takes a step forward in its long-term Comprehensive Plan to introduce transformative, transit-oriented development along the Galen Street corridor.
