Introduction
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Boston 2024 team is delighted to submit

our Key Venue Plan. We recognize that the
Olympic Stadium, the Athletes Village and the
International Broadcast Center/Main Press Center
represent strategic anchors for the Games as
well as important commitments of physical and
financial resources.
Our proposals for these three anchors reflect
our commitment to three fundamental
planning principles:
Put the athletes and the sports first by offering a
compact Games
Plan for meaningful and appropriate legacy in key
infrastructure and venues look forward to 2030 and
look back to 2024.
Add value to the core of the city, building a consistently
more livable, sustainable and innovative city.
The Olympic Stadium at Midtown, the Athletes
Village at Columbia Point/UMass Boston and the
IBC/MPC at the South Boston Waterfront form a
triangle, the sides of which are approximately one
mile. Each of these anchors is planned for legacy:
At Midtown, key infrastructure improvements will
be the catalyst for the legacy development of a new
mixed-use neighborhood in the heart of the city.
The Athletes Village will provide six thousand beds
of legacy housing for UMass Boston, transforming the
citys only public research university into a residential
campus with greater opportunities for teaching and
research expansion.
The IBC/MPC at the South Boston Waterfront is in
the heart of the innovation economy with a building
infrastructure readily convertible for science and
technology uses.
We are always open to your input and
improvements. We look forward to your review of
our submission and to making the Boston Olympic
Plan even better.

Olympic Plan. It will house the Olympic Stadium and
plaza a 14 acre gathering place for ceremonies
and celebration. Midtown is connected to Downtown
Boston, the Rose Kennedy Greenway, Boston Harbor
and South Station by the restored Dorchester Avenue
Olympic Boulevard for the Games.
Olympic Boulevard will be a pedestrian passageway

lined with new construction along the expanded
South Station head house and redevelopment
and temporary hospitality barges in the Fort Point
Channel for both visiting National Organizing
Committees and Corporate Sponsors. This will be
the pedestrian spine for the 2024 Games with
capacity for thousands of guests and revelers.

2.1 LOCATION AND USAGE CONTINUED
Current Use
What is the current use of the land/stadium?
The five principal parcels are used as follows:
City of Boston uses 17.8 acres for public works storage,
a parking garage salt shed and a tow lot.
Commonwealth of Massachusetts uses 2.0 acres
for maintenance; the MBTA uses 23.1 acres for bus
maintenance, fueling and washing and for train set
maintenance; .85 acre controlled by Commonwealth of
Massachusetts Highways is unused.
New Boston Food Market uses 20 acres for a wholesale
food distribution facility. The New Boston Food
Market is a cooperative, and the facility is currently
underutilized and for sale.
ART Mortgage Borrower controls 4.7 acres which
houses a cold storage facility related to the New
Boston Food Market.
National Railroad Passenger controls a segment of rail
bed totaling 1.4 acres.
Access for Use
What access for use has been negotiated?
Boston 2024 has had detailed discussions with
senior representatives of the Commonwealth,
the MBTA, Amtrak and the City of Boston about
relocation of existing facilities and overbuild of
existing rail lines. Discussions have been positive
with all involved agencies who are supportive of
the planning initiatives.
Obtaining the Land

What is the process required to obtain the land
for development?
The process for land assembly for the Olympic
Stadium at Midtown will include several strategies:
It is proposed that land currently controlled by
the City of Boston and by the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts will be assembled by means of the
expanded authority of existing public agencies or
the creation of a new public agency dedicated to this
task. Maintenance and service functions currently
located on these parcels will be relocated off site
in a consolidated configuration with other similar
functions to achieve operational efficiency.
Privately held land will need to be purchased and
consolidated with the surrounding public parcels under
a single authority.
Air-rights above rail tracks used by both the MBTA and
Amtrak will be secured, and those air-rights will be
consolidated with the surrounding parcels under the
same authority.
Securing a Lease
For an existing stadium, what are the steps required
to secure a lease for use?
Not applicable. Boston 2024 proposes new,
temporary stadium construction.

Adaptations of the Stadium

What exclusive and non-exclusive use is required in order to
achieve the adaptations of the stadium and the use of the
stadium for test events and the Games?
Permitting Challenges
What challenges are anticipated for permitting (zoning,
environmental, etc.) for the construction, pre-Games and postGames deconstruction or retrofit and use?
Boston 2024 anticipates proposal of Olympic
legislation that would facilitate permitting and
entitlement. The entitlement process will include
significant community engagement with local

elected officials, the surrounding neighborhood, as
well as business and institutional leaders.
Owner after Completion
Who would own the stadium when completed or when would it
be returned to the current
owners/tenant?
Boston 2024 anticipates that the land and
infrastructure improvements will be controlled
by a public authority. All improvements will be
controlled by the same authority for the duration
of the 2024 Games.
We anticipate that the northwest quadrant of the
overall site may be developed prior to the Games
with new hotel, residential, retail and restaurant

uses. Following conclusion of the Games, the
temporary stadium will be dismantled and the
entire site will be privately developed with
additional retail, residential and office uses.
Proposed Perimeter
What is the proposed perimeter for the stadium and
support facilities?

Construction Period
Planned Renovations
What is the proposed construction period?
If the stadium is existing, have any renovations or additions

taken place recently, or are any planned?
We anticipate the following baseline schedule:

Demo/Remediation/Site Preparation
6-12 months
Base Scheme for Temporary

Stadium Construction
12-18 months
Stadium to OC
When would the stadium be handed over to the organizing
committee?
We anticipate that the stadium will be complete
and available to the Organizing Committee
approximately 6 months before commencement of
the 2024 Olympic Games.

Pre-Games Usage
Will the stadium be used by the owner between completion of
construction and Olympic handover?
The Olympic Stadium will be used for test events
between completion of construction and
Olympic handover.
Returned to Owner
When would the stadium be handed back to the owner/tenant?
Risks of Agreement
What risks of agreement with owners or partners and or
delivery should be considered for the stadium?
Several agreements with current land owners must
be achieved to complete land assembly:
Relocation strategies for existing facilities controlled
by the City of Boston, Commonwealth of Massachusetts
and the MBTA must be planned and implemented.
Control of privately held parcels must be completed.
In addition, entitlements for post-Games use must
be implemented.
2.2 LEGACY
Planned Post-Games Use

What is the planned post-Games use?
Post-Games, the infrastructure improvements
delivered as part of the Olympic Stadium
development will be the catalyst for development
of a new Midtown neighborhood, repairing the scar
in urban fabric from the 19th and 20th century rail
and highway construction. Transit improvements
of heavy rail, improvements of I-93, interchange
connections and the construction of an overbuild
platform will form the foundation for significant
mixed-use development. Over a series of phases,
we envision retail, residential and office uses
developed by the private sector in a grid of streets
with Olympic Boulevard as the spine. First phase of
work will be conversion of below platform areas to
parking, required as soon as possible to support the
expanded Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.
Future phases will include smart blocks of mixeduse development with new streets, green open
space, diversity of housing and opportunities for
office and retail development within one mile of
South Station.
Design for Post-Games
What is the design for post-Games use?
The transit infrastructure provided for the Olympic
Games, including rail access to South Station,
overbuild above MBTA tracks, public plaza space
connecting to Fort Point Channel, and surrounding
roadway improvements, will enable development
of a new neighborhood in the heart of the city. In
addition, approximately 2,000 parking spaces will
be provided in the volume below the dismantled
stadium to support the enlarged Boston Convention
and Exhibition Center.

2.3 FINANCIALS
Contribution of Owner
What contribution will the owner/tenant make toward
construction?
The stadium site will be controlled by a public
building authority or agency, either existing or to
be formed. Acquisition and improvements will be
financed by the issuance of bonds supported by
value creation for private development - the first
phase of which will be initiated before construction
of the Olympic Stadium.
Cost for Use
What are the costs for use of the stadium?
Boston 2024 proposes new construction for the
Olympic Stadium; costs for use of the stadium and
operational costs will be determined in the context
of financing and ownership.
Turner has a long history in sports facility

construction, beginning in 1909 with the companys
first major sports project, the Promenade for
Harvard Stadium. Turner has since been recognized
as an industry leader, providing services for
professional and collegiate stadiums, ballparks,
arenas, and training facilities, as well as speedways,
racetracks and tennis centers. For more than 15
years, Engineering News Record has ranked Turner
as one of the top Sports Builders in the United
States. Some notable projects include Madison
Square Garden, the redevelopment of Soldier Field,
and Yankee Stadium. Projects under construction
or recently completed include Levis Stadium (San
Francisco 49ers), Livestrong Sporting Park (Sporting
Kansas City of the MLS) and The University of
Washington Husky Stadium Renovations.
Temporary Stadium Costs were developed
in detail by Nussli Group, a leading, globally
operating supplier in the field of temporary and
modular construction.
Budget for Decommissioning

What is the budget for decommissioning, dismantling and
recycling of materials?
Structural requirements will be reused as part of
legacy development.
Cost Estimators
Who are the cost estimators?
Cost estimating to date has been provided by
Suffolk Construction with review and other
preconstruction services provided by Turner
Construction, Boston. Suffolk Construction
is a national construction management firm
headquartered in Boston with main offices in the
Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast and West regions.
Turner Construction Company is one of the largest
construction management companies in the United
States with a construction volume of $9B in 2012.
Budget for Community Engagement

What is the budget for community engagement related to the
construction of the stadium?
We propose a $5M budget to allow the Committee
to conduct a significant community engagement
effort. We also expect that there will be an
independent consultant team that works on behalf
of the community to review all real and potential
impacts of the stadium.
11
2.4 DESIGN
Seating Capacity
What is the proposed seating capacity for Games use?
The proposed seating capacity for the Olympic
Games is 60,000.
Existing Utility Infrastructure
What existing utility infrastructure would serve the stadium?
The proposed stadium location is in an area of the
city well served by infrastructure. The areas to the
west and east of the site are densely developed and
supported by regional utility systems that traverse
portions of the site or are located in public corridors
at the perimeter of the site.
Water: Multiple water systems are available on
Frontage Road to the west of the site and Dorchester
Avenue to the east of the site. As many as five 12-inch
looped water systems exist in immediate proximity
to the site. These systems are cross-connected to
the north and south of the site increasing system
redundancy and reliability in the case of a break on
any of the subject segments. The proposed stadium is
anticipated to require approximately 170,000 gallons
of water per day. Based on discussions with the Boston
Water and Sewer Commission (BWSC), this can be
accommodated via the existing infrastructure.
Sanitary Sewer: Sanitary sewer capacity in the
proposed stadium location is also robust. The site is
bordered by two sanitary collectors that are directed to
the main sanitary tunnel between the city and the Deer
Island Regional Treatment Facility. Over the last decade,
the BWSC has undertaken a program of separating
sewerage and drainage in the areas to the south of
the city center. In parallel, the Massachusetts Water
Resources Authority (MWRA) has upgraded the regional
collection system. These improvements have resulted in
increased system capacity. BWSC indicates that capacity
exists for the 170,000 gallons per day of anticipated
wastewater flow related to the stadium venue.
Telecom/Data: Frontage Road and Dorchester Avenue,
immediately proximate to the site, include regional
data loops that connect to long haul fiber via local
network switches in Boston.
12
Drainage: A portion of the Dorchester Brook Conduit,

a major local drain collector, is within the site
limits. Construction of the stadium venue will likely
require relocation of a portion of this line. Relocation
will include provision of direct connections to the
facility storm water systems. The proposed rainfall
management and treatment system for the venue will
include facilities to treat runoff from roof, plaza and
paved areas and infiltration features that will recharge
the underlying groundwater table. Spill prevention
functionality will be included at loading and service
areas to protect the aquifer.
Existing Roof Modifications
For an existing stadium, what is the plan for the roof?
Environmental Conditions
What are the existing site conditions? Provide a study of
environmental conditions and water tables that could impact
construction and/or costs.
Like much of the City of Boston, the site represents
filled tidelands. The water table is at +10.0 with the
approximate ground elevation sloping from +17.5 to
+15.5 in respect to the Boston city base elevation.
All new permanent construction will require deep
foundation technologies with which this planning
and construction team has extensive experience
throughout the city and particularly in the South
Boston Waterfront.
The site conditions are diverse as the site has been
used for multiple purposes:
service and maintenance of MBTA buses and trains
service and storage of City of Boston Public
Works vehicles
active retail lines
wholesale food distribution facilities.
We do not, however, anticipate unusual site
contamination issues, unusual mitigation schedule
or cost requirements.
2.4 DESIGN CONTINUED
Accessibility
Seismology Study
What accessibility improvements have been included in your

cost estimates?
Has a recent seismology study been conducted on your stadium

or stadium location?
All cost estimates include design of full

accessibility and compliance with the requirements
of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the
Massachusetts Architectural Access Board.
We have engaged Haley & Aldrich, the leading

geotechnical engineering firm in Boston, to
provide both a preliminary seismology study and a
preliminary evaluation of soil conditions. There are
no unusual conditions in either category.

LOCATION AND USAGE
The Columbia Point/UMass Boston Precinct offers a

prominent waterfront site ideally suited to host the
Athletes Village. The area is well served by public
transportation with access to the MBTA commuter
rail, red line train service and bus connections via
the JFK/UMass station. It is connected to Midtown
by both the Olympic Route Network and immediate
highway access via the Southeast Expressway (I-93).
The site enjoys generous access to Bostons greatest

asset - its waterfront. Adjacent to Joe Moakley Park,
the Athletes Village offers private athlete access to
Carson Beach for the duration of the Games with
unobstructed views over the Old Harbor back to the
Olympic Stadium and the picturesque city skyline
beyond. Additionally, abundant practice fields will
be available at Boston College High School, on the
main campus of UMass Boston and at Columbus
Park within Moakley Park.

Current Use
Obtaining the Land
What is the current use of the land?
What is the process required to obtain the land

for development?
The principal parcels are used as follows:

The City of Boston uses 57.43 acres as public park.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts uses 46.6 acres
to accommodate Kosciuszko Circle and Columbia Road
which currently operate as a traffic interchange along
Joe Moakley Park. The parcel also includes a building
occupied by the Massachusetts State Police.
The University of Massachusetts Building Authority
owns 19.94 acres currently utilized as student parking.
The Boston Bayside Expo Center is largely vacant and
the university intends to demolish the structure to
redevelop the site for campus expansion.
We intend to lease the property from the

University of Massachusetts and expect that the
remaining properties would be acquired by public
authority or alternatively financed with a private
developer for the planned student housing and
residential development post Olympic Games.
Following the Games, private developers would
redevelop the parts of the Village not used
by UMass for student housing as market rate
multifamily and for-sale condominiums.
Santander Bank uses 13.61 acres for office

and commercial.
184 units of University Residences are planned on the
site next to the Corcoran Jennison office building on
Mt. Vernon Street.

Construction Period
What is the proposed construction period?
The proposed construction period is as follows:
Remediation + Site Preparation
6-12 months
Construction + Fit-out for Olympic Games 36 months

Environmental Conditions
What are the existing site conditions? Provide a study of
environmental conditions and water tables that could impact
construction and/or costs.
The existing site is occupied by a former
convention/exposition center and over 1,300
asphalt surface parking spaces. The USDA Soil
Conservation Service soil survey classifies soils
within the project site as Urban Land indicating that
greater than 85 percent of the site is occupied by
impervious surface with parent material comprised
of excavated and filled land. Like much of the City
of Boston, the site represents filled tidelands. The
water table is at elevation +11 feet from City of
Boston datum. All new permanent construction

will require deep foundation technologies and
some select standard waterfront site engineering
practices with which this planning and construction
team has extensive experience throughout the city.
We do not anticipate unusual site contamination
issues, unusual mitigation schedule or
cost requirements.
Developer Proposal
What is the development proposal?
The proposed Athletes Village will create a
vibrant, mixed-use community on the Columbia
Point waterfront. The residential program required
by the Olympics will fulfill the 6,000 dormitory
beds needed by the University of Massachusetts.
The remaining 10,500 beds will be converted to
approximately 2,500 - 2,900 market rate housing
units and ground floor retail space. These units
will be high quality, sustainable and transportable
housing units capable of being relocated to fill local
housing needs in neighborhoods around the city.
23
Developer Selection
Permanent Facilities
How will the developer be selected?
What other permanent facilities are proposed?
The developer will be selected through a transparent,

competitive process where key criteria will be
applied including financial strength, sustainability
and expertise in student housing and design.
In addition to the residential program, a portion of

the athletes sports complex will be retained as a
community sports facility along William J. Day Blvd.,
adjacent to Joe Moakley Park.

Building Heights and Additional Permanent Facilities

Diagrammatic Map
Will the units be sold?

A portion of the units may be converted for sale.
What is the target market for unit sales?
The target market for rental of this new housing is
Millennials. This demographic wants to be close to the city,
have access to rapid transit and values efficient design and
technological capabilities over luxuries. There is a high
demand for workforce and market rate housing in Boston
and these sustainable homes would have instant appeal to
this demographic.
24
Utility Infrastructure
What existing utility infrastructure would serve the Athletes
Village?
Water: Multiple 12 water loops are available in close
proximity to the site on Morrissey Boulevard and
along Mount Vernon Street. Additional water mains
are available on Dorchester Avenue in close proximity
to the JFK/UMass MBTA station. The design will
need to ensure that systems are cross-connected to
maximize redundancy and capacity for domestic and
fire use. Initial estimates put water demand at about 1
million gallons per day for the Athletes Village. BWSC
has indicated that this capacity exists in the current
distribution system.
Sanitary Sewer: Sanitary sewer facilities are available
on Morrissey Boulevard which runs through the site
and along the north edge of the Bayside area where
the MWRA Columbus Park Connector is located.
The Columbus Park Connector is the primary sewer
collector for this portion of Boston and directs flow
to the Columbus Park Headworks, which is the last
stop before the Deer Island Wastewater Treatment
Facility. According to the discussions with the BWSC,

there is available capacity for the 1 million gallons of
wastewater flow expected from the Athletes Village.
Capacity in this system is a result of system upgrades
and regional sewer separation improvements.
Telecom/Data: Morrissey Boulevard, which traverses
this area, provides regional telecommunications and
data service. If higher capacity global fiber is
required, extension of service lines from the north
will be necessary.
Drainage: This area is in close proximity to Boston
Harbor. Boston Harbor is generally protected from
dynamic wave action and storm surges by the network
of harbor islands and Cape Cod. There are multiple
access points to provide drainage from the proposed
Village areas to the harbor. Construction of the Athletes
Village will include a rainfall management and
treatment system to treat runoff from roof, plaza and
paved areas and infiltration features that will recharge
the underlying groundwater table. The BWSC recently
completed installation of a 12 foot by 12 foot drain
interceptor in Morrissey Boulevard to improve local
drainage system performance.

3.2 LEGACY
Post-Games Use
The Athletes Village will revitalize Columbia
Point and create a vibrant, transit-oriented, mixeduse waterfront district. The master planned
redevelopment of the site will unlock transportation
barriers created by Kosciuszko Circle by reorganizing
the infrastructure and linking the surrounding
neighborhoods including Dorchester, Harbor Point,
the University of Massachusetts Boston campus and
the proposed Village to each other and to Carson
Beach and Joe Moakley Park. The proposed Athletes
Plaza will become a waterfront retail destination
for the entire City of Boston. Joe Moakley Park, one
of Bostons largest public spaces, will be vastly
improved as adjacent neighborhoods will enjoy
access to the sports complex and improved athletic
fields. Increased capacity at JFK/UMass MBTA station
will improve access to the district.
26
Post-Games, the housing will be returned to

6,000 beds of student housing for University of
Massachusetts Boston. The remaining units will be
converted into approximately 2,500 - 2,900 units
of market rate housing. Some units will remain on
site and a large number will be relocated to Boston
neighborhoods for workforce housing.
Those areas currently under private ownership,
such as the Santander Bank site, will be used for
temporary support facilities and will be returned
with improved infrastructure and value created for
redevelopment. Additional opportunities will also
be created for the development of University of
Massachusetts academic and research facilities.

3.3 TRANSPORT
Access Routes
Internal Roadways
What are the access routes to and from the proposed Olympic
route network?
How will internal roadways fit into the plan?
The Athletes Village is conveniently located along Morrissey

Boulevard and just east of Interstate-93. This site is
approximately 1.25 miles from the proposed Olympic Stadium
and 2.5 miles from the South Boston Waterfront Precinct. Access
to a dedicated Olympic route network would occur along the
east side of Morrissey Boulevard to Old Colony Avenue/Preble
Street or directly to/from I-93.
Transport Mall
Where will the Transport Mall be located?
The Transportation Mall will be located on the former Santander
Bank parking site, immediately accessible from the Olympic Lane
network and proximate to athlete support facilities.
The internal roadways within the Athletes Village have been

conceptualized in an urban grid with the scale of the Village
street architecturally responsive to the context of our city. The
plan draws on the citys approved master plan for Columbia Point
and the aspirations of the UMass Boston master plan so that
the roadway and utility infrastructure will ultimately benefit the
legacy of the site as an academic campus and neighborhood.
The alignment of the primary north-south roadway through the
Village will ultimately service the future connection between
Morrissey and Day Boulevards. Service and emergency access to
all residential buildings will be provided by the internal roadway
system. During the Games, this network will provide for internal
shuttles to circulate through the entire site.

3.4 FINANCIALS
Financial Viability
Proposed Financing
Provide a market study indicating the financial viability of the

Village plan including proposed price ranges for units and
proposed market absorption rate.
What is the proposed financing for construction?
Prior to the acquisition by the University of Massachusetts

Building Authority several years ago, the Bayside Expo site was
the target of significant developer competition as a multifamily housing site for its location proximate to downtown,
waterfront access and transit connections. The real time vacancy
for the entire BostonPads.com database of more than 100,000
apartments is only 2.5 percent.
In addition, we are studying the opportunity to build high quality
sustainable and transportable housing which can be relocated to
other neighborhoods in the city where it will fill a current void in
moderate-rate housing.
We expect that 6,000 beds of housing, which will provide the

long-term housing for the University of Massachusetts Boston,
will be financed by the University or alternatively with a student
housing owner/developer with a long term master lease
provided by the University of Massachusetts. The remaining
housing units will be financed by a private development entity
on the basis of the desirable legacy use with a long-term lease
and a ground lease from the University.

Number of Facilities
Current Use
Do you propose one facility for both, or two facilities?
What is the current use of the site/facility?
Boston 2024 proposes two new state-of-the-art

media facilities for the IBC and MPC.
The principal parcels are used as follows:

The Gillette company uses 9.0 acres for surface parking.
The United States Postal Service uses 20.9 acres for
surface parking and operations.
Proposed Location
Where is the proposed location?
Both the International Broadcast Center and the
Main Press Center will be located in the heart
of the South Boston Waterfront approximately
2 miles from the Athletes Village. The proposed
buildings will be adjacent to the Boston
Convention and Exhibition Center, which will
contain four competition venues hosting six
sports. With a close proximity to the Convention
Center hotels this location provides members
of the media with first class accommodations
just steps from the IBC and MPC. The entire
venue is 27 acres including areas for ceremonies,
broadcast, operations and transportation.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts MBTA/Highways

uses 6.8 acres for the South Boston Bypass Road.
The Massachusetts Department of Transportation owns
3.0 acres which are currently unused.
The Massachusetts Convention Center Authority uses
7.5 acres for the service, maintenance and mechanical
access for the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.

Utility Infrastructure
Facility Contract
What existing utility infrastructure would serve the IBC/MPC?
If existing, can the facility be contracted for use for one year
prior to the Games?
The South Boston Waterfront has extensive sewer,

water and storm water facilities. The Boston
Convention and Exposition Center is currently
undergoing a $1 billion expansion, which will
include new utility infrastructure connections. In
addition, the South Boston Waterfront is planned
for 17 million square feet of new office and mixed
use development, and the Boston Water and
Sewer Commission has been making new capacity
improvements to serve the district. We do not
anticipate any utility capacity or line extension
issues for the IBC and MPC in the context of the
growing South Boston Waterfront.
We have recently engaged with CDM Smith, a
leading Cambridge-based engineering firm to
provide a study of available electrical power.
Boston 2024 proposes the IBC and MPC will be new

buildings. The two media venue buildings will be
completed and ready for use one year prior to the
opening of the 2024 Olympic Games.
Building Metrics
How many floors/square meters are planned for the IBC? for
the MPC?
The IBC and MPC will be located in two separate,
but side-by-side, buildings. The IBC will be built
over the South Boston Bypass Road and will have
two floors totaling 700,000 sf. The MPC will have
five floors totaling 300,000 sf.
4.2 TRANSPORT
Transit Infrastructure
Additional Transport Infrastructure
What existing transport infrastructure serves the

site/facility?
What additional transport infrastructure is planned?
The proposed IBC/MPC site is located in the South

Boston Waterfront Precinct adjacent to and over the
South Boston Bypass Road. The site has interstate
access and egress located immediately to the north
via the I-90/I-93 interchange. The South Boston
Bypass Road is proposed as a dedicated Olympic
route providing direct access between the Olympic
Stadium (1 mile away) and the University Cluster via
I-90. Transit access to the IBC/MPC is conveniently
located 0.6 miles west of the site at South Station
and immediately north of the site via the Silver
Line/World Trade Center station. Summer Street
provides access to the downtown, featuring existing
taxi cab stands. World Trade Center Boulevard
provides immediate access to the vibrant South
Boston Waterfront area.
36
Adjacent to the IBC/MPC site is the so-called

Track 61, which is a planned rail connection
between Beacon Yards (West Station) and the South
Boston Waterfront. This service is expected to be
operational before 2024. When operational, this
service will provide a direct rail connection between
the Waterfront and University Clusters. A transport
hub and parking are also planned in conjunction
with the IBC/MPC on the north side and proximate
to the site. Bicycle and pedestrian improvements
are currently in design development along Summer
Street between the site and South Station.
4.3 LEGACY
anticipates the legacy uses by following the City

of Bostons Seaport District 100 Acre Master Plan.
The balance of the temporary IBC and MPC support
space will revert back to development parcels
and open park space. In all options, the transit
infrastructure provided for the Olympic Games
is utilized including the planned rail connection
between Beacon Yards (West Station) to the South
Boston Waterfront.
Planned Post-Games Use

Both the IBC and MPC will be permanent buildings.
We have planned IBC conversion for science,
technology and innovation workspace for the
Innovation District. The MPC will be designed to
convert the 300,000 sf to office space supporting
the expanding Innovation District. The overall IBC

Intended Tenants/Post-Games Use:

The IBC/MPC facilities will be converted to commercial uses
following the Games to support the South Boston Waterfronts
growing innovation culture. The Seaport District 100 Acre
Master Plan, and temporary support areas for the IBC/MPC will
be returned to open spaces and development parcels. Improved
public transportation, commercial and residential growth and the
legacy of the Olympics in the district would ideally position such
parcels for innovative, cultural and community uses.
