Blake joins Marcus Partners at V.P. development
Boston, MA Marcus Partners has hired Danielle McLaughlin Blake as vice president, development. Blake joins as the company has announced key projects and leases in the life science sector, along with a strategic plan for acquisitions for Fund III, a $360 million value-add real estate fund.
Blake comes to Marcus’ Boston office with a wealth of life sciences expertise and will lead the development of 310 Northern Ave. in the Seaport. Most recently, she worked with Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. where she was a vice president in their Greater Boston real estate development & construction group. She worked on new development and repositioning projects within Alexandria’s Greater Boston life science and technology campuses including the delivery of 100 Binney St. A graduate of Babson College, Blake is also a LEED Accredited Professional and a member of the USGBC Massachusetts Chapter.
“Danielle’s deep life science experience strengthens our development team as we look to continue delivering best-in-class life science projects and expand our pipeline,” said Marcus Partners’ Principal Levi Reilly. “We are thrilled that Danielle will be leading 310 Northern Avenue and we look forward to continuing to collaborate with the South Boston Waterfront and Raymond L. Flynn Marine Park community, city, state and numerous other stakeholders as we advance our plans.
310 Northern Avenue extends Marcus Partners’ commitment to the South Boston Waterfront and Raymond L. Flynn Marine Park. In June, Marcus Partners filed a Letter of Intent with the City of Boston for 310 Northern Avenue, a 742,000 square foot life science campus, consisting of two buildings. The redevelopment also provides for the creation of a state-of-the-art marine industrial facility, which will serve as a relocation facility for two seafood processing and distribution businesses located at 310 Northern Avenue. This relocation facility will allow the seafood companies to modernize their operations and secure a new home in the South Boston Waterfront.
