BOSTON, May 1, 2019The Gutierrez Company, a leader in the Boston real estate community, announces that it has formed a joint venture partnership with a national institutional investor to develop the Burlington BioCenter at 4 Burlington Woods in Burlington, MA. The conversion to a new, state-of-the-art, 109,500-square-foot lab-ready facility designed and permitted for lab use is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2019.

Burlington BioCenter, located in Greater Boston’s leading life science cluster, is configured for a variety of layouts. It will feature four stories of LEED Certified lab-ready core and shell; interconnecting stairways; floor-to-ceiling windows; a high-performance lab infrastructure with cutting edge energy efficient systems; abundant parking; and an open design aesthetic.
