We are pleased to announce PAYETTE has been awarded the Biomedical Research Building at Thomas Jefferson University. The Biomedical Research Building will be a two-phase project as the University plans to significantly increase research capacity over the next ten years.
Our firm has had the pleasure of working on the Thomas Jefferson University campus for the past several years. Our initial involvement began with the New Ambulatory Care Center Master Plan in 2009. This led to multiple subsequent studies for the Kimmel Cancer Center, Center for Advanced Medicine and the Respiratory Institute.
We are excited to continue working with Thomas Jefferson University and to conceive a building that embodies vision and mission of their prestigious institution.
The 2025 OpenLAB Boston studio work will be exhibited at Virginia Tech Monday, March 2nd through Wednesday, March 4th.
Please join us for the following events on Monday, March 2nd:
11:00am - Lecture with Parke MacDowell
1:00pm Lobby talk with Kevin Sullivan
This year’s studio identifies seven sites along the frayed edges of Boston’s Greenway. The Greenway is a one-mile-long linear park running through the heart of the city, reconnecting downtown Boston with its waterfront. Many of the parcels along its edges remain undeveloped and present mute, blank facades to the public realm. Addressing and repairing these edges through acts of infilling, layering, grafting, framing, and placemaking is the core focus of the studio—SUTURE.
