110 Canal Street, Boston

A boutique building that celebrates local businesses

This 7-story brick-and-beam creative office was acquired off market at a discount due to pandemic distress. Located in the dynamic, high-growth North Station submarket on a high-foot-traffic thoroughfare, the building presents a perfect opportunity to rejuvenate Canal Street. We partnered with a local architecture firm (and long-time building tenant) to reimagine the space.
