Architecture
The firm designed the historic renovation of an eight-story 120,000 square foot building, located in Boston’s Fort Point Channel, to accommodate mixed-use office and retail space. The renovation of the core and shell of two connected buildings involved the rehabilitation of the exterior brick façade, window, door and roof replacement, as well as sandblasting heavy timber wood beams and interior brick walls to expose architectural features of the original 1906 structure. The building offers 106,000 square feet of office space and 6,800 square feet of ground level retail space. The firm’s design incorporated a new exterior public stairway connecting Summer Street and A Street to supplement existing pedestrian access.
