Gateway Park 50 Prescott

Elevating Life Sciences and Biotech with Cutting-edge Lab Facilities and Collaborative Spaces, Powering Research and Development for Academic and Commercial Success

Gateway Park is a 12-acre, mixed-use destination for life sciences and biotech companies. The Park includes five life sciences buildings totaling 550,000 sf of flexible, adaptable lab space to meet the needs of research organizations and 125,000 sf WPI Life Sciences and Bioengineering Center.

Our sister company O’Connell Development Group was selected by WPI as the developer and owner for Phase II of this development. This project included a mixed use destination for life sciences and biotechnology incubators and adaptable lab space that meets the needs of academic, commercial and research organizations. DOC served as the CM-at-Risk for Phase II. With approximately 92,000 sf, it houses such tenants as the Biomanufacturing Education and Training Center, the Massachusetts Biomedical Initiatives, the Fire Protection Engineering department at WPI and the WPI School of Business.

The new FPE fire lab at Gateway Park has space for industry-centric projects and fire related research. It is designed and built to provide a great deal of flex space to allow for changing priorities and to assist industry in a timely manner. The Fundamentals Laboratory has new and enhanced bench-scale capabilities designed to provide high-quality data free of interference from noise, vibrations, and environmental factors. The engineering laboratory is more than 2,000 sf of flexible space with a 30 foot high ceiling.
