6 Spice & 40 Cambridge
Charlestown, MA
Located in Boston’s Charlestown neighborhood, these buildings once housed the “Priscilla of Boston” wedding dress manufacturing and warehousing operation. Located across from the Sullivan Square T Station, it was re-imagined through adaptive reuse as brick & beam office space for multiple tenants focused on technology, architecture, and R&D. Additionally, 6 large loft-style residences with a total of 18 bedrooms were created to finish off this mixed-use development.

The collaboration created a development that seamlessly blended into the existing street scape and provided a diverse range of essential housing options.
