Repositioning 1,200 acres of old flex industrial space into a vibrant innovation district

 

What was once known as the Telecomm Corridor® with its concentration of some of the country’s biggest telecommunications firms and suppliers needs a transformation. The tech sector has diversified from its telecom equipment roots and now includes companies across a wide range of industries. Research and new academic programs at nearby institutions signal the potential for further diversification.

Our work focused on creating a stronger district identity, upgrading and maximizing the district’s real estate to support start-ups and scale-ups, injecting open space amenities and temporary programming to enliven the area, expanding mobility options and capitalizing on local transit assets.
