The approval allows the existing 45,000-square-foot office building at 2 Research Place to be replaced with a larger life science facility and parking garage. The project may use waivers for rooftop equipment and sidewalk width, but the approved sidewalk must comply with accessibility requirements. The Commission also reviewed a draft Pedestrian Master Plan, which was scheduled for public review and comment for 60 days before a tentative September 13 public hearing.
