SEAPORT SQUARE in BOSTON’S INNOVATION DISTRICT: A Plan That Can Deliver Innovation The City of Boston is in a global competition for companies, new ideas, new ways to work, creation of new jobs and the retention of the area’s talent. Mayor Thomas M. Menino and his administration have taken a leadership role in setting forth a vision of The New Boston and designated the 1,000 acre South Boston Waterfront and the Boston Marine Industrial Park as the Boston Innovation District. The Seaport Square development is perfectly positioned to be the anchor and lead the way for that vision. Innovation in design is a critical piece for the creation of a commercially viable community, and sustainability is a crucial aspect of designing for the future. However, it is only part of the equation. What differentiates Seaport Square is its unequaled ability to deliver the environment, platform and services required for the critical interactions and collaboration that lead to innovation. Our goal is to create fertile ground from which innovation and transformation, as well as physical and social networking, can occur. Proximity and culture matter. We plan to harness those ideals to the fullest to create a place where innovation can grow—organically. Innovative housing for active research communities Physical / social networks and resources for professional growth 8
“ Mayor Menino andhave the City of Boston their strategy in place. This strategy is the formation of an area where there is an attraction, a value and a quality of living and working that brings companies and entrepreneurs to live and work in the “ Innovation District. MITCH WEISS City Of Boston Chief Of Staff 10-minute living, with retail and amenities close by Extensive cultural attractions for a world-class neighborhood 9
SEAPORT SQUARE in BOSTON’S INNOVATION DISTRICT: Urban Crossroads, Modern Neighborhood There is good reason why Boston’s waterfront has been targeted for new development and economic growth by developers and the city alike. There is space here to build something truly new. The waterfront landscape is underdeveloped, so new construction can integrate stringent ‘green’ requirements and new technologies right from the outset. The district lies at a crossroads, where different parts of the city connect with each other and with the world. Seaport Square Seaport Square is located at a Boston ‘crossroads’, with direct connection to the city center and to the world INNOVATION Site as a Crossroad DISTRICT via Logan Airport.

SEAPORT SQUARE in BOSTON’S INNOVATION DISTRICT: Close-Knit Neighborhood Character, A Boston Tradition Seaport Square will contribute to Boston’s tradition of neighborhoods with distinct identity, as a modern, cosmopolitan district with the activity and the densely-packed amenities of a tight-knit neighborhood. Boston is America’s Walking City, a place where ‘10-minute living’ is a reality— everything you need is not more than 10 minutes travel time away. Seaport Square, with its tight network of retail, culture hotspots, workspaces, housing and recreation spaces, will exhibit that feeling of closeness and accessibility, re-interpreting Boston’s walkable identity for the future. Seaport Boulevard will aspire to have the impact of another Boston ‘Main Street’. Potential interactive installations like ‘Where’s Boston Now?’ are being considered to celebrate the history and identity of a rich, storied city that is leaping forward into a new century.

INFRASTRUCTURE: Integrated Energy and Water Reuse Seaport Square will work to minimize its impact on regional energy and water resources. The project will reduce emissions and energy demand project-wide through a comprehensive approach to energy efficiency, renewable energy infrastructure, and advanced energy monitoring and metering technologies. The project has committed to reduce energy consumption by at least 20% compared to Code-compliant buildings, and is continuing to investigate opportunities that will further reduce carbon emissions throughout the operational lifetimes of the buildings. Additionally, the project is pursuing various water reuse strategies, including rainwater/stormwater capture and building greywater capture systems. Integrated stormwater collection can redistribute Seaport Square is exploring the potential of a cogeneration energy rainwater for irrigation and greywater uses plant to supply electricity, heating and cooling throughout the project Image: Veolia Energy 36

SUSTAINABILITY: Passive Techniques While renewable energy and active systems certainly contribute to sustainable design, passive systems have the biggest effect on the environment and on the consumer’s wallet. Green roofs reduce heat island effect, and increased ventilation can make use of the natural winds in the area. Creating a vibrant, high-density mixed-use neighborhood that attracts and retains young professionals is a sustainable strategy in itself. Green roofs reduce heat island effect, use Increased ventilation will take advantage of winds coming off of the rainwater and provide additional park space water for cooling during the hot Boston summer 38

Productive spaces coexist with research, training and tech transfer centers, as well as subsidized housing, facilities and green areas that improve the quality of work and life in the neighborhood. Pearl DIstrict: The Pearl District is an area of former warehouses, light industrial and railroad classification yards in Portland, Oregon now noted for its art galleries, upscale businesses and residences. The plans call for the creation of a high density urban residential neighborhood in partnership with the City of Portland. The area has a mix of multi-family housing, major office facilities, regional attractions, retail businesses, parks and open spaces. The plan calls for 5,000 new housing units with an average density of 100 units per acre. This also mandates that the mix of new housing meets the income demographics of the City as a whole. 40

K-BLOCK INNOVATION CENTER: A Urban Lab for the City’s ‘Core Principles of Innovation’ The Core Principles of the Boston’s Innovation District require that it function as an urban lab, exhibit environmental leadership and foster shared innovation. BGI is exploring the development of an ‘Innovation Center’ on Parcel K. This Center is designed to help promote the Mayor’s initiative; it will provide community space that fosters collaboration, learning and the sharing of ideas. The building itself will exhibit innovation in design and construction methods, including modular assembly. New technologies and ideas would be tested at the K-Block Innovation Center. Successful ones would be integrated into the alternative Live / Work housing at J-Block, and from there would make their way into the rest of the Seaport Square project. Modern technologies like electric car hook-ups, health-monitoring and social media retailing would thus be tested at K, and then become a part of the everyday lives of Seaport Square residents and visitors. The central community gathering area functions as a The ‘Innovator Workspace’ is a flexible office environment with Commons, and can be reconfigured as an event space open-plan seating and private conference areas and rooms 42
Implementation path of new ideas in Seaport Square Innovation Center users will be able to access Educational programming space can host lectures or high-tech multimedia and communication tools less formal ‘learning labs’ and workshops 43
SEAPORT SQUARE Setting the Standard for Innovation on the Waterfront 44
Seaport Square responds directly to the City’s Core Principles of Innovation. As an URBAN LAB, the Innovation Center will incubate and disseminate new ideas into the city. As always, ENVIRONMENTAL LEADERSHIP is an integral part of this world-class project. And with ALTERNATIVE HOUSING TYPES, a RANGE OF WORKSPACE OPTIONS and a VIBRANT CULTURAL LANDSCAPE, Seaport Square has unrivaled potential to lay the framework for SHARED INNOVATION on the Boston Waterfront. 45

    SEAPORT SQUARE inBOSTON’S INNOVATION DISTRICT: A Plan That Can Deliver Innovation The City of Boston is in a global competition for companies, new ideas, new ways to work, creation of new jobs and the retention of the area’s talent. Mayor Thomas M. Menino and his administration have taken a leadership role in setting forth a vision of The New Boston and designated the 1,000 acre South Boston Waterfront and the Boston Marine Industrial Park as the Boston Innovation District. The Seaport Square development is perfectly positioned to be the anchor and lead the way for that vision. Innovation in design is a critical piece for the creation of a commercially viable community, and sustainability is a crucial aspect of designing for the future. However, it is only part of the equation. What differentiates Seaport Square is its unequaled ability to deliver the environment, platform and services required for the critical interactions and collaboration that lead to innovation. Our goal is to create fertile ground from which innovation and transformation, as well as physical and social networking, can occur. Proximity and culture matter. We plan to harness those ideals to the fullest to create a place where innovation can grow—organically. Innovative housing for active research communities Physical / social networks and resources for professional growth 8

    SEAPORT SQUARE inBOSTON’S INNOVATION DISTRICT: Urban Crossroads, Modern Neighborhood There is good reason why Boston’s waterfront has been targeted for new development and economic growth by developers and the city alike. There is space here to build something truly new. The waterfront landscape is underdeveloped, so new construction can integrate stringent ‘green’ requirements and new technologies right from the outset. The district lies at a crossroads, where different parts of the city connect with each other and with the world. Seaport Square Seaport Square is located at a Boston ‘crossroads’, with direct connection to the city center and to the world INNOVATION Site as a Crossroad DISTRICT via Logan Airport. It is accessible by various means of transportation, surrounded by programs that are commercial catalysts and cultural Waterfront Connection attractors, strategically located on Wa the access routes to amenities of te r f ro n t versatile character.

    SEAPORT SQUARE inBOSTON’S INNOVATION DISTRICT: Close-Knit Neighborhood Character, A Boston Tradition Seaport Square will contribute to Boston’s tradition of neighborhoods with distinct identity, as a modern, cosmopolitan district with the activity and the densely-packed amenities of a tight-knit neighborhood. Boston is America’s Walking City, a place where ‘10-minute living’ is a reality— everything you need is not more than 10 minutes travel time away. Seaport Square, with its tight network of retail, culture hotspots, workspaces, housing and recreation spaces, will exhibit that feeling of closeness and accessibility, re-interpreting Boston’s walkable identity for the future. Seaport Boulevard will aspire to have the impact of another Boston ‘Main Street’. Potential interactive installations like ‘Where’s Boston Now?’ are being considered to celebrate the history and identity of a rich, storied city that is leaping forward into a new century.

The project will reduce emissions and energy demand project-wide through a comprehensive approach to energy efficiency, renewable energy infrastructure, and advanced energy monitoring and metering technologies. The project has committed to reduce energy consumption by at least 20% compared to Code-compliant buildings, and is continuing to investigate opportunities that will further reduce carbon emissions throughout the operational lifetimes of the buildings. Additionally, the project is pursuing various water reuse strategies, including rainwater/stormwater capture and building greywater capture systems. Integrated stormwater collection can redistribute Seaport Square is exploring the potential of a cogeneration energy rainwater for irrigation and greywater uses plant to supply electricity, heating and cooling throughout the project Image: Veolia Energy 36

    K-BLOCK INNOVATION CENTER: A Urban Lab for the City’s ‘Core Principles of Innovation’ The Core Principles of the Boston’s Innovation District require that it function as an urban lab, exhibit environmental leadership and foster shared innovation. BGI is exploring the development of an ‘Innovation Center’ on Parcel K. This Center is designed to help promote the Mayor’s initiative; it will provide community space that fosters collaboration, learning and the sharing of ideas. The building itself will exhibit innovation in design and construction methods, including modular assembly. New technologies and ideas would be tested at the K-Block Innovation Center. Successful ones would be integrated into the alternative Live / Work housing at J-Block, and from there would make their way into the rest of the Seaport Square project. Modern technologies like electric car hook-ups, health-monitoring and social media retailing would thus be tested at K, and then become a part of the everyday lives of Seaport Square residents and visitors. The central community gathering area functions as a The ‘Innovator Workspace’ is a flexible office environment with Commons, and can be reconfigured as an event space open-plan seating and private conference areas and rooms 42
