Development Watch: Amazon is growing in the Seaport

Amazon announced on Tuesday an expansion in the Seaport District of South Boston including a 630,000 square-foot office building and the creation of over 3000 jobs!
The e-commerce giant will reside in a new development at One Boston Wharf Road – a 17-story, 707,000 square foot, mixed-use building designed by world-renowned Henning Larsen architects of Copenhagen, Denmark.Â
This is Amazon’s second full-building lease in the Seaport, joining 111 Harbor Way, a 525,000-square foot building now under construction by WS Development, which will be completed later this year and will bring 2,000 new technology jobs to Boston.Â
Lots of changes coming to that part of the neighborhood. You can read more details via the Boston Globe here.Â
