Located on the edge of Boston’s historic Beacon Hill district, 100 Cambridge Street/Bowdoin Place is a mixed-use development composed of a new five-story retail and residential structure that wraps around a renovated 22-story government office tower (formerly known as the Leverett Saltonstall Building) constructed in 1965. Developed by quasi-public entity MassDevelopment, the project blends 34,500 square feet (3,205 square meters) of street-level shops with 56 market-rate condominiums, 19 units of affordable housing, and 580,000 square feet (53,882 square meters) of office space–floors two through 12 of the office building are dedicated to commonwealth uses and floors 13 through 22 contain Class A office space for private sector tenants. The project also comprises a 400-space underground garage that provides parking for tenants, shoppers, and workers.
