Description:
The BPDA is hosting an Impact Advisory Group (IAG) Meeting for the 420 Rutherford Avenue project located in Charlestown. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the Project Notification Form and the Article 80 Process. The meeting will include a presentation followed by Q&A and comments from the IAG Meeting. If time allows, we will also take Q&A and comments from the public.
Please note that the purpose of this meeting is different from 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.
The Project includes the construction of an approximately 99,500 sf office/R&D building, anticipated to be occupied by life sciences tenants. The proposed building will be three stories, approximately 48 feet in height with an approximately 23-foot-tall mechanical penthouse. The proposed floor plate is proposed to be similar to the floor plate of the existing building on the site that will be demolished; the existing foundation walls and piles will be used to the extent possible.
