McCall & Almy negotiates 15,000 s/f lease for Boston Society of Architects

McCall & Almy has negotiated a 15,000 s/f lease for the Boston Society of Architects (BSA) at the Waterfront Building at Atlantic Wharf, on track to becoming the first LEED-CS Gold skyscraper in Boston. In addition, McCall & Almy will assist the BSA in selling their existing building at 52 Broad St. in the Financial District. For years the BSA has dreamed of a central space for events, exhibitions and chance interactions centered on architecture and design. Following a design competition, architects Höweler + Yoon were selected. Flowing throughout the space, a cohesive soffit structure boldly asserts the headquarters' space on the street view and is both iconic and functional. "Boston needs a place to engage everyone involved in the design & built environment—architects, allied professionals and the general public—on a scale the BSA's current space has strained to accommodate," said Eric White, interim director of the BSA. "We selected McCall & Almy as our tenant representative based on their negotiating skills as well as their experience working with non-profit organizations like ourselves. We knew they would assist us in finding and securing the best lease terms possible."
