In addition to the development taking place on Main Street in Waltham, another mixed-use development offering street level retail and 230,000 square feet of high performance workspace is underway at 10 CityPoint in Waltham.  The new project leased its first-class office space to Wolverine Worldwide for the headquarters of its Sperry Top-Sider, Saucony, Keds and Stride Rite brands. Broker’s focusing on the Mass Pike/128 submarkets are optimistic about the development as they feel it will attract more talent and businesses to the area, helping absorb vacancy in surrounding markets such as the office space in Needham and Newton.

Wicked Local offers an assessment of the location’s commercial exposure:

“10 CityPoint, located on Route 128 at the exit 27 interchange, will be seen by more than 400,000 cars per day. The project includes street level retail and restaurant options and 230,000 square feet of high performance workspace, according to Boston Properties.”
