Reimagining Industrial
Cargo Ventures is beginning the redevelopment process for new industrial space and parking facilities along McClellan Highway in East Boston.
A New Vision for East Boston
This phased development project would expand on the existing industrial space along McClellan Highway, to make way for new offices, warehouse & distribution facilities and state-of-the-art manufacturing spaces. This overall project can also be the engine to support the reduction of existing traffic on McClellan Highway by extending the Martin Coughlin Bypass to the City line creating direct airport access for trucks and buses from the North while opening the Upper Chelsea Creek waterfront to the community which has been closed-off for over 100 years.
Bringing New Opportunity to the East Boston Community

Reimagine the waterfront
Harbor Walk
HarborKeepers has launched a community planning process, Vision Chelsea Creek, to reimagine the abandoned MBTA/MassDOT-owned railway site along the industrial shoreline, adjacent to East Boston Industrial. This public private partnership between HarborKeepers & Cargo Ventures will create a transparent, open community engagement process, led by landscape architecture firm, SCAPE, renowned urban planners and architects from Utile, Boston Society of Architects & Boston Society of Landscape Architecture. This process will yield a comprehensive vision incorporating open space, waterfront access, maritime and industrial uses; with input and participation from the East Boston community and the expertise from professional architects and planners. Cargo Ventures looks forward to supporting and ideally implementing this vision of the property as part of the master redevelopment.

Take advantage of reduced traffic
Transportation
In partnership with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, if granted use of an existing, unused Railroad Right-of-Way, this project would create a new bypass road for trucks and high occupancy vehicles to access the airport, immediately removing at least 1,200 daily vehicle trips from McClellan Highway. This new road would eliminate truck and large vehicle traffic from neighborhood streets and provide new, efficient access to Logan Airport from the North for commercial traffic.

Here’s What the Community is Saying

ZUMIX is grateful to Cargo Ventures for investing in our work and for believing in the power of creative young people to make the world a better place. Thank you Cargo Ventures!

Cargo Ventures continues to be a true partner to the East Boston community by always stepping up when help is most needed. With Cargo’s support, Salesian Boys and Girls Club is able to provide a meaningful place for children of working parents to come and spend their day, get help with remote learning and be supported in a safe, community environment. In turn, their parents are able to get back to work and make a living to support their families. Cargo Ventures understood the importance of our need during this unprecedented time and responded immediately.
From taking the time to solicit the opinion of our members on future plans, to providing assistance to various community programs and participating in our events, it is clear that Cargo Ventures cares about the East Boston community.
