Lyme Properties LLC broke ground on the 705,000-sf Center for Life Science Boston on July 26, 2005. Formerly called the Blackfan Research Center, the $250-million project is slated for completion in 2007. Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center will occupy 360,000 sf in the building. Lyme Properties will also construct a second facility, the Longwood North Research Center, on a half acre property adjacent to Beth Israel. Completion of the second facility is expected by mid-2007.
