Devens, MA King Street Properties (King Street) along with BW Kennedy & Co. (BWK) and 70 guests celebrated a topping off at 75 Jackson Rd., part of the Pathway Devens campus. This is the 5th building constructed by King Street with BWK as the general contractor in this burgeoning district for companies in leading industries including life science, green tech and advanced manufacturing. 

The ceremonial beam was signed by the construction team and was raised in recognition of the hard work performed on the site to get the building to this point in the process. The building is anticipated to be complete in July 2025, and tenant fit out work can commence as early as March.

“We’d like to thank everyone for their dedication to this project. Because of the teams’ diligent efforts and expertise, we are proud to celebrate this significant milestone on the fifth building at Pathway Devens that we have built with our partners at BWK,” said Tyson Reynoso, managing director/partner at King Street. “We are excited to see Devens continue to thrive as a destination for advanced manufacturing.”

“We are proud to have been a part of an amazing project and development. We want to congratulate King Street on their vision and success at Devens. Our long-term partnership with King Street Properties has been invaluable and we will continue our commitment to high-quality, collaborative efforts which has driven exceptional productivity and excellence at every stage,” said Brian Kennedy, president/founder, BW Kennedy & Co. 

The 210,659 s/f building is part of the customizable, purpose-built Pathway Devens campus. Designed for advanced manufacturing, the building features generous clear heights of 18 ft. on the first floor and 16 ft., 10 inches on the second floor, with a maximum clear height of 38 ft. in the high bay area. These higher clear heights ensure adaptability for future technological upgrades or reconfigurations – vital in a field where processes and equipment are constantly evolving. The building will also have 12,000 amps of power to accommodate the heavy power needs of companies engaged in next generation manufacturing.

Pathway is a real estate platform designed by King Street which removes the real estate obstacles that companies face when considering their advanced manufacturing options, allowing them to focus on their quest to better the world. King Street has successfully launched the Pathway platform in Devens, and in the Research Triangle, North Carolina.
