The center is anchored by the original location of Lambert’s Rainbow Market and benefits from a prominent positioning along Morrissey Boulevard, a major local thoroughfare (35,300 vehicles per day) in the heart of Boston’s fast-growing Dorchester neighborhood. Just one mile away, Dorchester Bay City will completely reimagine the city’s Columbia Point district with 6.5 million square feet of mixed-use development. Just five miles from Downtown Boston in the “path of progress” of new developments south of the city center, this densely populated urban infill location benefits from strong demand fundamentals that are only poised to increase as it undergoes substantial mixed-use growth Directly across the street, 430+ residential units were recently completed and are now fully occupied. Approximately one mile to the north is one of Boston’s most dynamic pockets of mixed-use development: Columbia Point and the area surrounding the MBTA’s JFK/UMass station. The neighborhood’s transformation is anchored by Dorchester Bay City, which will fully reimagine its streetscape with 6.5 million square feet of mixed-use massing and 20 acres of new open spaces. Other highlights in the market include The BEAT, a 700,000 square foot office/life science repositioning of the former Boston Globe headquarters, and a major modernization and expansion of the UMass Boston campus, which presently enrolls 16,000+ undergraduate and graduate students. Overall, the Columbia Point master plan envisions a total buildout of 9.7 million square feet that will bring thousands of new residents, visitors and employees to the area daily. The advantages of Lambert's Plaza's positioning within this fast-growing development district are twofold: it will benefit from increased demand for its synergistic roster of daily needs retailers as well as a strong proof of concept for its own mixed-use densification.
