Skanska tops out 19-storey student building in Boston ...Middle East

News by : (GCR) -
Skanska yesterday marked the topping out of the 35,768-sq-m Living and Learning Center, a student accommodation building for Boston’s Simmons University.

It ceremonially placed the uppermost steel beam on the 19-storey structure, which is scheduled to open in January 2027.

The building will have accommodation for 1,100 students at the private university, which offers undergraduate degrees to women and graduate degrees to women and men.

The center will also have a two-storey dining hall, pool and athletic facilities.

Skanska secured the $311m contract to build it in early 2023, and began work in May that year.

The Living and Learning Center is part of a deal Skanska has with Simmons that will see Skanska purchase some of the university’s land to develop a 158,000-sq-m mixed-use residential, commercial, and life-science research scheme nearby called Longwood Place in Boston’s Longwood Medical Area.

Revenue from the contract to build the Living and Learning Center has gone to land acquisition for Longwood Place, which Skanska will start building once the Living and Learning Center has been handed over to the university.
