We’re so excited to see the Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Complex at Northeastern University unfold. Since it’s a local project, many of us can visit the project with much more frequency than our further-flung projects. Many PAYETTE people catch glimpses of the building from the Commuter Rail or the Orange Line. The exterior is nearly finished and the scaffolding is coming down in the atrium. We took some preliminary photos this summer to capture the progress of the building. Thanks to Keitaro Yoshioko for his work on this photoshoot.
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.
