Boston, MA

The TRACK at new balance is a 485,000 square foot multi-purpose athletic facility focused on accommodating sports and athletes of all ages and levels to further advance competitive sports. This integral piece of the Boston Landing development features a state-of-the-art hydraulically actuated track that can stage various indoor track and field events with space for up to 5,000 spectators. Extensive training areas, medical offices, and a live music entertainment venue for about 3,500 people are located within the building. Street level retail opportunities exist along both Life Street and Guest Street while an internal garage provides parking for the development.

As the lead Civil Engineer and local permitting liaison, Beals led extensive and complex stormwater management planning and utility phasing during the design efforts to ensure a cohesive fit with the other elements of the Boston Landing development. As the project progressed into the permitting stages, coordination with Boston Water and Sewer, and the City of Boston Public Improvements Commission was required for full project approval.
