Chapel Bridge Park: Where History, Innovation, and Growth Converge
Chapel Bridge Park is a 250,000-square-foot office and R&D campus spanning eight buildings in Newton, Massachusetts. With roots dating to the 1850s and a tenant roster that ranges from craft beverage makers to global biotech firms, the campus blends historic industrial character with the infrastructure today’s companies need to scale.
The Company You’ll Keep
Chapel Bridge Park attracts businesses that come to build and stay to grow.
Spindrift, the Boston-born craft beverage company, established its headquarters on the Newton campus and later expanded its footprint with Bulfinch. That kind of repeat partnership speaks to something simple, hands-on ownership that supports tenants as they grow and evolve.
Biognosys, a Swiss-founded leader in next-generation proteomics, operates from 70 Bridge Street, advancing drug discovery and precision medicine for biopharma clients worldwide. Their presence anchors the building’s growing life sciences community.
First Aid Beauty, the clean skincare brand acquired by Procter & Gamble in 2018, has called Chapel Bridge home for over a decade, proof that the campus works for companies at every stage, from startup energy to global scale.
Today: Three Spaces, Three Opportunities
Three standout leasing opportunities are currently available across the campus:
80 Bridge Street — 33,000 SF, single-user building. Oversized ceilings, abundant natural light, and high-visibility branding in the heart of Newton. Built for a company that wants the whole stage.
70 Bridge Street — 12,762 SF, second-floor suite in a historic brick mill building. Direct freight elevator access and the kind of character you can’t fabricate — exposed structure meets modern functionality.
55 Chapel Street — 5,748 SF, ground-floor space at the center of the campus. Right-sized for a growing team that wants to be in the middle of the action.
Connected, Convenient, and Built for Today
Chapel Bridge Park sits minutes from the Massachusetts Turnpike with easy access to Route 128/I-95 along with Boston, Cambridge, and Watertown. Within a five-minute walk: restaurants, coffee shops, salons, and everyday conveniences.
On campus, tenants enjoy a newly renovated lobby, a full-service cafeteria, a fitness center with lockers and showers, abundant parking, and indoor bicycle storage. This month, the campus added 20 new EV charging stations, a reflection of growing demand for sustainable commuting options and Bulfinch’s ongoing investment in what the tenant experience looks like day-to-day.
The campus also features expansive outdoor space, which is increasingly essential as companies prioritize environments where employees can collaborate, recharge, and step away from their desks. Through a partnership with Green City Growers, a leader in urban agriculture, tenants can join weekly gardening sessions, cultivating fresh produce grown right on site. The harvest supplies Sebastian’s, the onsite café, and goes home with the people who grew it — real community.
A Site That’s Been Reinventing Itself for 170 Years
Chapel Bridge Park’s story starts in the 1850s, when Thomas Dalby built a stocking and hosiery mill at 57 Chapel Street. After the Civil War, Nonantum Worsted transformed the site into a thriving wool production facility, expanding operations and employing hundreds. By 1896, the Saxony Company rebuilt and significantly enlarged the complex. Major renovations followed in nearly every decade and again in recent years.
The thread that runs through all of it is the same: Chapel Bridge has always been a place where people come to innovate, grow, and build what’s next.
