OVERVIEW

This project will include four building components and will total approximately 530,000 square feet of above-ground floor area in active program use for Harvard’s science initiatives, including an auditorium and multi-purpose room.

It also includes approximately 150,000 square feet of shared research support facilities below-grade, an underground distributed energy facility, loading and mechanical facilities and below-grade parking for approximately 350 vehicles. An additional 150 parking spaces will be located on the North side of Western Avenue.

Finally, the project will include various amenities open to the public, including retail space and a cafeteria. In addition, the Science Complex’s four building components will surround a central yard resembling the spatial character of Harvard’s yards and open spaces in Cambridge.
