Description:

The proposed redevelopment program is anticipated to be anchored by the construction of approximately 514,900 square feet of office and research and development uses. These uses will be designed to accommodate research companies in the biotechnology and life sciences industry. The project is also anticipated to include approximately 21,900 square feet of ground floor retail uses, 40 residential units, and approximately 2,500 square feet of civic space.

Due to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) has postponed all in-person BPDA-held public meetings regarding Article 80 development projects and planning initiatives. View more information on the BPDA's COVID-19 response.

The BPDA is hosting a virtual Impact Advisory Group (IAG) Meeting, open to the public, for the NEXUS project. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss updates to the project and changes that have been made to address concerns from the Draft Project Impact Report (DPIR) filing for the project. The meeting will include a presentation and discussion with the IAG followed by Q&A and comments from the general public.

Please note that the purpose of this meeting is different than that of a traditional community meeting. As part of the development review process, IAG members work closely with BPDA staff to identify the impacts of a project and recommend appropriate community benefits to offset those impacts. IAG meetings prioritize discussion between the project proponent (i.e. the developer) and IAG members.
