Located at a higher learning institution in Cambridge, this 550sf makerspace lab provides a hands-on learning environment where students can be “messy” and experiment with different types of materials while working with laser cutter and 3-D printers. The makerspace features flexible work bench furniture that can be rearranged to accommodate teaching needs. Lessons learned include utilizing glass between this lab and surrounding space to foster passerby curiosity as well as thought out storage needs and the necessity for numerous electrical outlets throughout the lab.

Our photographer, Bruce Martin, visited the Turner Public Library in Randolph last week to get some shots of the completed space while the foliage was changing!

The original deteriorating building was restored and renovated into 121 loft apartments and 2 commercial spaces, adding vibrancy to Charlestown. Its district was also added to the National Register of Historic Places. #bostonpreservationalliance #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #historic #architecture #warehouse #charlestown #lofts #loftapartment #allianceawards #industrial #adaptivereuse #residentialarchitecture #residential #boston
