Kendall Common ( née Volpe Redevelopment) | Kendall Sq | Cambridge

Per correspondence posted by the Cambridge Redev. Authority:

Proposed Demolition - Kendall Common (formerly known as the Volpe parcels)

"Demolition of four of the existing structures located south of Potter Street is anticipated to commence in early 2025 and continue through completion in Spring 2026"

I am assuming this includes the tower, since there are four buildings in total south of Potter:

There are also a couple of legacy Volpe structures north of Potter (along Binney) that I'm assuming are not included in this stage.

There are crews working along the fence line today. I think they are removing the cables used to strengthen the fence against vehicular impact.

MIT paid $1.3 million for a landscape artwork by Maya Lin. Then it forgot to tell anyone. - The Boston Globe

“The Sound we Travel at," a series of 11 grass-covered, wave-like mounds of earth, can be found in Kendall Square — though there's no sign installed to tell you what you're looking at.
