The Accordia team signed a 99-year lease with UMass Boston last year and will manage the build-out of the former Bayside Expo Center land in a deal that could net the university up to $235 million over the coming years. Accordia also controls the land at 2 Morrissey Blvd, now home to Santander Bank, across the street from the Bayside site. Accordia has been engaged in a planning effort that included community meetings prior to the onset of the covid-19 crisis. “From the outset we have A rendering shows what the proposed Dorchester Bay City community on Columbia Point might look like once fully devel- envisioned this project as oped over the next decade.
