Assembly Square will be home to greater Boston’s newest mixed use community, based on environmental stewardship and smart growth principles, just minutes from downtown Boston.
Assembly Square will be transformed into a mixed use development that is transit- and pedestrian-ori-ented with a mix of offi ce, residential and retail uses in a modern new neighborhood. The neighborhood includes a dense urban fabric comprising 1.75 million square feet of build-to-suit offi ce space, 2,100 residen-tial units including luxury and more moderately priced apartments and condominiums, and 500,000 square feet of shops, restaurants and entertainment venues. Active urban streets interspersed with sidewalk cafes, parks and captivating retail connect offi ce, residential and retail uses to a meandering waterfront park, a new MBTA Orange Line station, and ample parking. It’s a contemporary backdrop for business success that’s innovative and convenient. Located within a pedes-trian-friendly community, 500 Assembly Square Drive’s benefi ts to workers and residents include opportunity for greater social interaction and improved personal and environmental health, with lower transportation costs. The sensitive integration of both the natural and built environment provides the best place to live, work and play in New England.
Outstanding highway access and visibility, future onsite public transportation, a dynamic riverfront location, and a wealth of retail amenities including casual and fi ne dining and an international shopping experience make this development a convenient and exciting urban offi ce location. This booklet presents the design of one block within the overall development and then focuses on the offi ce building at 500 Assembly Square Drive.

Location
500 Assembly Square Drive
500 Assembly Square Drive is located within the Greater Boston Area which is considered the economic and cultural center of New England. The regional economy is based on research, technology, and fi nance and is also a center for world class medical facilities. Over 100 colleges and univer-sities located in the area, along with a variety of museums and cultural institutions, make Greater Boston a prime locus for dynamic businesses.
Ideally located less than 3 miles north of Boston, 500 As-sembly Square Drive is an alternative to downtown Boston or Cambridge with convenient access on and off I-93 and ample dedicated parking. This prime location is also less than 4 miles from Boston’s Financial and Back Bay Offi ce Districts and only 4.6 miles from Logan International Air-port, which makes business travel easy and convenient.
A new MBTA Orange Line Transit Station will provide easy connectivity to Greater Boston’s business and residential communities.

Block 7
Block 7 is one block within the much greater Assembly Square mixed-use development. This block in itself will in-clude a mix of uses with 200 residential units, 73,745 square feet of retail, 576,000 square feet of offi ce space, and 1,600 parking spaces. As planned, the block will have one residen-tial building and two offi ce buildings sited over a podium of ground fl oor retail and four levels of above-grade parking. Also, one below-grade level will accommodate additional parking, and some retail space.
The three buildings are currently identifi ed as: 525 Main Street, a 23-story residential building with approximately 200 residential units.500 Assembly Square Drive, a 15-story building with 10 offi ce fl oors totaling 231,000 SF of rentable offi ce space over 4 fl oors of above grade parking and a ground fl oor containing lobbies, retail and building service spaces.550 Assembly Square Drive, a 19-story offi ce building with 14 offi ce fl oors totaling 323,400 SF of rentable offi ce space over 4 fl oors of above grade parking and a ground fl oor with lobbies, retail and building service spaces.
The three buildings can be constructed all at once or independently. Currently 500 Assembly Square Drive will be the fi rst building built on the block and incorporates the garage ramp system that will be used in subsequent phases.

500 Assembly Square Drive Description
Sustainable Means Eco-Friendly and Affordable: The build-ing is designed within a sustainable design framework utilizing the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System® as a guide for developing the following high performance building features:
Sustainable Site:
• The project is within a high density mixed-use development. • The project protects “green fi eld” sites by developing on
previously developed sites.• Alternative transportation options include public transporta-
tion and preferred parking for effi cient and alternative fuel vehicles
• Light colored high-albedo materials are used to reduce the heat island effect.
• Eventually all parking will be within a parking structure.
Water Effi ciency: • Water use reduced by more than 30% using low-fl ow plumb-
ing fi xtures.• Irrigation water use reduced by more than 50% using indig-
enous plants and a high-effi ciency irrigation system.
Energy & Atmosphere: • Overall energy use reduced below ASHRAE 90.1-2004
standards.• Enhanced building commissioning and verifi cation deployed.• No CFC (chlorofl uorocarbon) based refrigerants used.• Energy Credits for renewable energy sources may be pur-
chased.
Materials & Resources:
• 75% of the construction waste diverted from landfi lls.• Recycling strongly encouraged.• When possible, construction materials manufactured locally
and/or containing recycled or rapidly renewable content.
Indoor Environmental Quality: • Air-quality, access to day-light and outside views provided.• Low emitting materials used to minimize impacts of off-gas-
sing.• Increased ventilation provided.• IAQ (indoor air quality) Management Plan implemented
to protect mechanical systems from contamination during construction.
• A carbon dioxide monitoring system insures proper outside air delivery.
Comprehensive design and construction guidelines will be drafted to educate and assist future tenants in implement-ing sustainable design and construction strategies for tenant improvements
High Performance and LEED-Friendly Features
A high-performance building envelope examines function fi rst, responds to surrounding climatic conditions, and allows the aesthetics to evolve from these perspectives.
For 500 Assembly Square Drive, the building façade is envisioned as a high performance envelope comprised of glass set into a grid of panelized masonry or precast con-crete with accents of spandrel glass, painted metal panels and exterior mullion caps. This presents a strikingly fresh and modern appearance.
• Vision glass panels – insulating units with low-E coating and a slight tint to mitigate adverse effects of solar heat gain
• Extensive fi rst fl oor glass–as clear as possible–to provide visibility into the retail / lobby spaces and give the fi rst fl oor a dynamic street presence
• Large glass canopies – projecting from the façade to an-nounce the offi ce lobby. Awnings along the storefronts will relate the building to a pedestrian scale
• A decorative screen wall covering the parking garage designed to screen the cars while still allowing natural ventilation
• A highly insulated roof – to reduce heat absorption• Green roof design – the low roof of the parking podium
may be designed as vegetative roof for both visual and environmental considerations
Interior Components
The Offi ce Lobby at 500 Assembly Square Drive will be ac-cented with stone, wood and stainless steel and will include a security / reception desk and building tenant directory. Four passenger elevators, each 3,000-lb capacity with a speed of 350 fpm, will serve fl oors 1 and 7-14 with a 29.9-second aver-age interval. One service elevator, 4,500-lb capacity with a speed of 350 fpm, will serve fl oors 1 and 7-14. Two passenger elevators, each 3,000-lb capacity with a speed of 400 fpm, will serve two levels of below-grade parking and six levels of above-grade parking with a 49.8 second average interval.
Landscape
The proposed entrances for both offi ce buildings will be on Assembly Square Drive. Once complete, the two offi ce lob-bies will be interconnected by an exterior arcade with garage access and convenience retail to support the offi ce tenancy. A drop-off lane and landscaped forecourt with street trees, plant-ers, stone paving, decorative lighting, and movable seating will provide satisfying color, texture and other pedestrian ameni-ties. Assembly Square Drive will be transformed into a vibrant, people-friendly street.
Building Structure
The primary structural system will be comprised of steel fram-ing with composite slabs-on-metal deck. Composite joists will be used in the offi ce levels due to building height constraints. The remainder of the project will consist of standard wide-fl ange beams, girders and columns.
Mechanical / Heating / Ventilation / AC
The typical HVAC systems serving the main areas of the build-ing will be an all-air system combination of variable air volume (VAV) terminal units with fan-powered VAV boxes with electric reheat coils at the perimeter, and fan-powered VAV boxes without coils for interior zones. Cooling towers will be located on the roof.
30
Stairwells will be designed to maintain positive air pressure. One stair will also include a vestibule with smoke control ventilation. The entire system including controls will be on standby power. Fans and all controls will be programmed into the direct digital control (DDC) and fi re alarm systems.
Garage ventilation and exhaust will be provided by fans sized to supply and exhaust a total of 1.5 CFM / SF of garage fl oor area. Each fan will operate off of carbon monoxide (CO) detectors in quantities and locations to monitor 1,500 SF per detector.
The DDC system provided for the building will include a complete operating station, web-server, programming and graphics.
Electrical
The building will be serviced via utility company electric vaults (rated at 13.8KV / 480Y / 277-volt / 3-phase / 4-wire) for offi ce tower lighting, miscellaneous power, HVAC equipment, eleva-tors and parking area services.
Emergency generators and an emergency distribution system to service designated emergency life safety, non-essential life safety, and standby loads will be provided.
General-purpose convenience outlets will be provided throughout the building.
GFCI-protected outlets will be provided where required.
Lighting
Lighting will be provided in all public and back-of-house spaces. Tenant space lighting will be the responsibility of the tenant.
Emergency lighting throughout the building and at all egress points from the building will be powered via an emergency
generator.
Fire Alarm
An addressable fi re alarm system will be provided for initiation, device monitoring and evacuation signal initiation.
The fi re alarm system will be interconnected with the security system to unlock all doors upon an alarm signal.
Telephone / Data
Incoming underground communication services will be pro-vided for the following systems. • Tel/data services• CATV services• Security services• Fire alarm servicesAn integrated technology network system will be designed with conduits, raceways, back-boxes and device boxes provided. Each fl oor will have one telecommunications room dedicated for distribution of horizontal cabling.
Lightning Protection
A UL master-labeled lightning protection system will be pro-vided.
Normal Power Design Criteria
The current offi ce / tenant power requirement is based on the following criteria:• Tenant allowance for lighting @ 1.5 watts per
square foot (WPSF)• Tenant allowance for miscellaneous power @ 3.5 WPSF• Tenant allowance for support @ 1.0 WPSF • Tenant allowance for tel / data, MDF, IDF room
equipment @ 4.0 WPSF• Tenant allowance for HVAC equipment @ 8.0 WPSF
Emergency Power Design Criteria
• Tenant allowance for standby lighting / power /
communication systems @ 4.0 WPSF
