J. Calnan & Associates join Rhino Capital for groundbreaking
of 180,000 s/f flex space at the Business Park at Myles Standish

Taunton, MA Nearly 75 guests gathered to commemorate the start of construction on a significant new development at the Business Park at Myles Standish. The groundbreaking ceremony marked the beginning of a 180,000 s/f flex/manufacturing facility located at 55 Dever Dr., set to be delivered next summer. The project is being constructed speculatively and aims to offer life science, flex, or manufacturing space to prospective tenants seeking a specialized facility.

The Myles Standish Industrial Park, a 1,029-acre industrial campus, provides competitive labor costs and draws from a substantial, well-trained labor pool from a population base of over one million people in Southeastern Massachusetts and Northern Rhode Island. The park hosts a range of businesses, including office users, high-tech companies, manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution centers.

Representatives from J. Calnan & Associates (JC&A) joined Rhino Capital Advisors, city officials, and members of the extended project team, including Randall Paulson Architects, MassDevelopment, and Colliers to celebrate this milestone.

Dan Charest, partner and project executive at JC&A, said “This development is a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation. We are thrilled to be part of a project that will bring significant economic and social benefits to the Taunton community.”

Michael Olson, managing principal of Rhino Capital Advisors, said “The start of construction here at Myles Standish represents more than just a new building; it symbolizes progress and a commitment to creating high-paying jobs that enhance the quality of life for both employees and the community.”

The new facility is designed to support a variety of uses, combining flexibility with advanced manufacturing capabilities. This project underscores the ongoing development and growth within the city and reflects a commitment to driving economic development in the region.
