The Innovation and Design Building
Our work on the city’s largest building located at the Seaport.
After extensive renovations, the 1.4 million-square-foot Innovation and Design Building, located in Boston’s Seaport District, is now home to a dynamic mix of companies and industries. The eight-story building, with its expansive floor plans, high ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows, stands apart as one of the city’s most distinctive properties.
Patriot Restoration was first selected to perform window replacement work on the building in 2014 and, based on its performance, was awarded a key role in the larger building-wide restoration effort. As part of the project, Patriot provided all scaffolding access, performed more than 30,000 square feet of concrete repairs at window perimeters and facades, installed new perimeter sealants on over 900 windows, and applied an elastomeric waterproofing coating to the building’s exterior.
The $14 million restoration project, which also included removal of the granite facade on the west elevation and the design and installation of more than 400 linear feet of GFRC cornice cladding, was successfully completed on time in October 2017.
