Cambridge Crossing is 5! Time flies when you’re having fun.

October 17, 2017, the day we officially broke ground at CX, seems like years ago when the site was just a dirt lot. Fast forward five years and look at CX now! From completing 1.9M SF of life science space, to opening local restaurants and retail, to welcoming innovative tenants, to launching unique outdoor spaces and art for the public, we are proud of how far the CX neighborhood has come. But we didn’t do it alone. We wouldn’t be where we are today without the amazing community of people who make CX the vibrant and welcoming neighborhood it is today. As we commemorate this significant milestone, we reflect on where we began and how we got here. Let’s take a trip down memory lane as we look back on some of our favorite memories and accomplishments since breaking ground in late 2017.
