member news... We knew it as Acorn Park, but it’s Acorn Park no more. Renamed Discovery Park, the former Cambridge, US home of Arthur D. Little, Inc., is undergoing major changes. Last
July, the current owners of the property, Bulfinch Companies, Inc., announced
plans to demolish two parking lots and seven of the 20 buildings on the 26.5
acre campus, and to build a new research facility. Bulfinch expects to replace
the 416,000 square feet of lab and office space with an 826,000 square foot
research park. The original three-story buildings will be replaced by six-story
buildings, and 2.6 acres of now-developed space will be returned to a natural
state. Demolition
and construction have begun, and the project’s first phase is slated for completion
in December 2005. The anticipated anchor tenant is the Smithsonian Institution
Astrophysical Observatory, a member of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.Here are some photos of the demolition of building 35 before and during. More photos» News to Share?
