One Congress Office Tower Breaks Ground Downtown

Carr Properties, National Real Estate Advisors LLC and Boston-based HYM Investment Group broke ground on One Congress, a one-million-square-foot office tower in downtown Boston as part of a joint venture. The 600-foot tall office tower was designed by architects Pelli Clarke Pelli, and will house the headquarters of State Street Corp.

The tower, which is slated for completion in 2023, will anchor Bulfinch Crossing, a mixed-use development that includes hotel, office, residential and retail. Plans for the project include 30,000 square feet of fitness, wellness and food and beverage offerings, as well as an outdoor roof garden.

“As the future home for State Street’s headquarters, One Congress will fuel economic development and pedestrian activity in Bulfinch Crossing,” said Boston Mayor Marty Walsh. “Once complete, this transformational project will support our city, creating income-restricted housing units, and contributing over $12 million in linkage funding to support additional affordable housing and workforce development programming.”
