[stick n move]

Came across this and was surprised I had never seen it before and couldnt find any mentions of it here on this site. Cant find it on the bpda site either weirdly… anyways:

141 Portland Street

“141 Portland Street is a state-of-the-art life science building proposed for Boston’s Bulfinch Triangle subdistrict. With a deep appreciation for the historic fabric that surrounds it, the building’s façade design incorporates analysis of architectural elements, materiality, and proportion that characterize the neighborhood. Beyond the exterior, the building’s layout promotes interaction and knowledge sharing among its occupants, fostering a vibrant community of innovators and researchers. By connoting innovation and celebrating the rich heritage of the Bulfinch Triangle, 141 Portland promises to become a vital contributor to Boston’s scientific and architectural legacy.”

11-Story Lab Under Review in Bulfinch Triangle​

“Plans are now under review for a lab project at 222 Friend Street & 141 Portland Street. The site is currently developed with an existing vacant building and associated surface parking lots. Now plans call for an 11-story building to include 152,500 sf of life science uses and approximately 9,500 sf of new ground floor retail space. The project is striving for the US Green Building Council LEED Gold certification standard with all-electric mechanical systems.”

It’s a lab project, so I would guess it’s on ice.
