PARK OVERVIEW

Bulfinch Square, located at 43-47 Thorndike Street, is a historic two-building office complex in East Cambridge, Massachusetts. This distinguished National Register property, between Second and Third Streets, spans over 70,000 square feet and features an award-winning renovation of two courthouse buildings that served as Middlesex County's seat of government from 1814 to 1974. Bulfinch Square is also home to the Cambridge Multicultural Art Center, which houses a theater and art gallery inside the complex. This property is perfect for professional office users seeking unique, loft-style space with historic architectural details, magnificent high ceilings, 24-hour access, and a dramatic presence. With responsive on-site staff and personnel, including property management, an evening security guard, and a nightly cleaning service, there's also less to worry about. Bulfinch Square is less than 2 miles from the center of Boston on beautifully landscaped grounds with a lavish courtyard and public park. A covered parking garage is across the street, the CambridgeSide indoor mall is only a few blocks away, and a wide variety of casual and fine-dining restaurants are nearby. Interstate 93, the Lechmere Green Line, and the Kendall Red Line MBTA stations are within walking distance, providing convenient property access within minutes. Combining a rich history with a spectacular location, Bulfinch Square is truly a first-class office building.

ABOUT E CAMBRIDGE/KENDALL SQ

Located across the Charles River from Boston, this urban neighborhood is a premier destination for tech, education, and innovation. Bookended by access to two MBTA rail lines and a bus system that feed into the downtown core, the area has seen a swath of new development in the last two decades.

Situated just North of MIT, the neighborhood attracts a concentration of tech and life companies. The area bounded by Main and Binney Streets is called “the most innovative square mile on the planet” and is home to several Fortune 500 global and regional headquarters. The proximity to world-class higher education institutes has led companies to cluster in the neighborhood, making it the global epicenter for life science R&D.

Capitalizing on the high-paying jobs that have come to the area, East Cambridge has a growing food scene along its main thoroughfares and the CambridgeSide shopping mall along First Street. New residences have also been added to the neighborhood as part of a wider mixed-use development adjacent to the MBTA Green Line.

Given its prime location and recently built high-quality office space, East Cambridge leads Greater Boston with the most expensive rents. Demand has quieted recently, coming off a life science surge in 2022. As such, there are a range of options for quality office space in what has historically been a very tight space market.
