Umm...If GE is going out of business, who's fixing up the building? :confused: ;)

GE because GE isn't going out of business and even if they were they would be snapped up by someone else as a major subsidiary rather than just evaporating into thin air.

GE is still finishing the old building renovation. The newer one has been canceled.

It's not canceled; they pushed back the completion date to 2021.

That stretch of Harborwalk hadn't been closed off last time I went this way. I stuck my phone over the fence but nothing interesting is happening on the other side.

Wonder if Amazon would be interested in the building once the rehab is done.

Went by it last week, they really damaged the land where the parking lot was/the new building would be, worse than I can remember. Certainly fixable however. It feels to me that the rehab is taking a long time too.

But the actual headquarters isn't under construction, correct? This is just a restoration of the old warehouse building as I understand it. The actual HQ is on hold per the Globe story posted above.
 
Re: General Electric HQ | 244-284 A Street | Fort Point

as far as I'm aware, the new bldg for the HQ is not under construction, but the 5 & 6 Necco St buildings are under renovation for the new HQ as well as channel-front improvements. i'd consider this as "under construction"

what was full-up construction for the entire site is now just phased (though we'll see if the phase 2 new bldg materializes)
