According to Lowe, Covington’s goal was close proximity to South Station. He said 99 Summer St. offered the most attractive long-term space solution and full-service building amenities, leading to the decision to relocate to the building.

Barry Dubé and Mike McCormick from Cresa’s Project Management Group are overseeing the buildout of the space.
