  • Actions to Transform Mobility
    Actions to Transform Mobility TRANSPORT KENDALL Navigating the Growth and Transformation of Kendall Square Introduction The Kendall Square has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past 40 years. The scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs in Kendall Square together have created one of the most dynamic innovation districts in the world. Kendall’s innovation ecosystem is dependent on the talent and resources of institutions and companies located in close proximity. Close connections to Boston’s medical centers, investment resources, and education institutions have likewise been invaluable. Kendall Square has become central to Massachusetts’s economy attracting talent from every corner of the state, however Kendall is not as geographically central within the regional transit system as downtown Boston. Despite this, Kendall has grown from one red line station into a model transit-oriented development district with a truly multi-modal commute pattern, supported by the City of Cambridge’s progressive parking and transportation demand policies. Kendall has spurred the emergence of new districts focused on life science and technology innovation throughout the region. The state’s economic growth is dependent on reliable transportation connections between where people live and work. Transport Kendall seeks to maintain and enhance the transit-oriented development model in Cambridge. To do this, Transport Kendall promotes future investment in the transit system to serve this economic hub, while relieving congestion and supporting regional

  • 2017-09-21 Labcentral 610 Release-Final
    LabCentral to Open Next-Stage Facility for Growing Life Science Companies, Supported by Pfizer LabCentral 610 accepting companies now, with opening anticipated December 2017 New LabCentral space builds on LabCentral model: private lab suites in a supportive coworking environment CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (September 21, 2017) – LabCentral and Pfizer today announced plans to open LabCentral 610, a new LabCentral offering located at Pfizer’s Kendall Square Worldwide Research and Development campus. The 33,000-square-foot facility is slated to open in December and will house up to six early- to mid-stage companies. Eligible startups include those with high-impact science, excellent execution, and significant prospects for achieving scientific and business success whose space needs exceed current LabCentral offerings. The companies may be ‘graduates’ from the current LabCentral space, or those interested in securing space in the thriving bioscience Kendall Square neighborhood. A joint steering committee made up of representatives from LabCentral and Pfizer evaluate potential companies. Three local biotechs have been accepted: Affinivax, EnBiotix, and Aquinnah Pharmaceuticals. Companies interested in applying can learn more here on LabCentral’s website. “As our resident startups have met their scientific milestones quickly and efficiently, they’ve thrived and grown – often citing LabCentral’s support and coworking model as a key factor,” said LabCentral Cofounder and President Johannes Fruehauf, M.D., Ph.D.” LabCentral developed the LabCentral 610 site in response to requests from resident startups outgrowing or “aging out” of its original facility who want to remain within LabCentral’s supportive environment as they continue on in their next stage of development. (LabCentral policies limit the length of time resident companies can stay in order to make room for a steady stream of cutting-edge startups.) Fruehauf continued, “Of course, we’re a startup too, and like our resident companies, reap the benefits of working within our own creative shared work environment.

  • Technical Analysis for BRT in the Greater Boston Area
    Technical Analysis for BRT in the Greater Boston Area October 2014 In 2013, through a grant from the Barr Foundation, the Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP) began a technical analysis to determine which corridors could have the potential for gold-standard bus rapid transit (BRT). ITDP is a non-profit that focuses on the design and implementation of BRT systems around the world and has helped to design many of the gold-standard BRTs outside of the US. To date, there are no gold-standard BRTs in the US but there is good potential for Boston to build the first. Initial Corridor Selection Existing Ridership When determining which corridors are ripe for BRT, ITDP applies a methodology that it has used in all of the systems it has helped to design – that is, to focus on the existing ridership as an indication of where BRT could be most successful. BRT infrastructure is generally designed to provide the greatest time savings for the greatest number of people so looking at where the greatest numbers of people currently travel is an important first step. Often, it is the instinct of governments to build BRT where there is no mass transit at all – not even a bus line. But where there are currently no buses, one must rely on a slow build-up of demand over time and it could be years before buses are full and high frequency can be justified. This could lead to empty bus lanes and negative public perception of the project. It also means new operating costs to be carried by the transit agency.

Exploring Methodologies to Capture Subjective Impressions of City Spaces by Laya Anasu Submitted to the Program in Media Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Media Arts and Sciences Abstract Cities and spaces are often examined with a focus on amenities or attributes that can be quantified or explained through patterns and movements by people. There are even numerous apps and services (Yelp, FourSquare, Google Maps to name a few) that provide platforms for adults to express their subjective feelings and opinions about restaurants, bars, landmarks, and public places, but as researchers have shown', these apps don't quite capture the full picture of meaningful places or spaces for people.

  • Red / Blue Line Connector Assessment – Land Use, Population, and Ridership Memo 2 2
    SUMMARY MEMORANDUM: POPULATION, LAND USE, AND RIDERSHIP CHANGES UPDATE TO THE 2010 DEIR FOR THE RED LINE/BLUE LINE CONNECTOR Published October 2018 1. Introduction In 2010, Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) conducted a study to evaluate the connection of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s (MBTA’s) Red Line and Blue Line in Boston. The Red/Blue Line Connector Project consisted of extending the Blue Line beyond its current terminus at Bowdoin Station along Cambridge Street to the Red Line at Charles/ MGH Station. In March 2010, MassDOT submitted a Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) pursuant to the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (MEPA). In May 2010, MEPA approved the DEIR. At the time, MassDOT had not identified funding for the construction of the Project. Recent changes in development and growth in Revere, East Boston, and Cambridge, as well as advancements in construction technologies, have generated a renewed interest in revisiting the need for the Red/Blue Line Connector. MassDOT’s Office of Transportation and Planning (OTP), working with the MBTA, has initiated a study to reassess the Project by revisiting previous assumptions developed during the 2010 DEIR. The purpose of this memorandum is to update the data and assumptions regarding population, land use, and ridership from the 2010 DEIR’s Purpose and Need. The 2010 DEIR focused primarily on four Census tracks surrounding the Cambridge Street corridor project area. However, due to their current access to the Blue and Red lines, the communities in this area would likely not have a large effect on demand for and use of the connection.

Address By Dr. Winston E. Kock, Director Electronics Research Center National Aeronautics and Space Administration & / To The American Marketing Association Thursday, January 7, 1965 i I am very pleased to be here today and to tell you little about how the plans and activities of the Electronics Research Center will affect the marketing groups of many of the New England electronics indus- tries. I shall first review some of the ways in which your dealings with us will differ from your ways of dealing with industry, the Defense Department and even other NASA Centers. I hope to give you an insight as to the most effective way for you to proceed to insure that we can become properly aware of the superiority of the research capabilities of your individual companies. In the Second part of my talk I shall tell you some- thing of our plans for the future and why we feel that these plans will result in the most effective use of university and industry talents. Mr. James E. Webb, the Administrator of NASA, stated in his Report to Congress that our Electronics Research Center's function is "to ensure that an increased level of research is carried on in those areas of electronics essential to the mastery of space and in those univer- sities, institutes, and industries which have the capa- bility for the most advanced work and which are prepared to accept contracts and grants in support of such work." During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1965, our Electronics Research Center plans to place research contracts totalling approximately $2 million, and we expect 5 years hence--at full operation--that our grant and contract program will be of the order of $42 million per year.
