^^^ beeline, is there Sanofi-related construction activity beyond the Sanofi (Genzyme) signage on the construction fence?

Not that I could see. The blue banners (marketing?) lined the driveway from Western Ave to the Sanofi guardhouse.

Harvard picks New York developer to build innovation campus in Allston - The Boston Globe

Harvard’s ambitious goal: nothing short of building another Kendall Square, a high-tech hub bolstered by a mix of innovative businesses and academics that would be the envy of any city.

After years of planning, Harvard University took a major step toward building out its vast holdings in Allston, announcing Thursday it has selected a prominent New York-based real estate firm to develop the next large section.

The firm, Tishman Speyer, beat out almost a score of local and national developers for the high-profile gig to build a 900,000-square-foot, mixed-use complex on 14 acres along Western Avenue.

One of the reasons this prize was so fiercely sought: The winner will likely get a leg up when Harvard eventually looks to develop the rest of the university’s land holdings in Allston that it has accumulated during the past three decades.

Interesting that they picked a NYC developer when there were so many qualified local firms bidding on this. I guess Harvard's so big they don't care.
