Simmons University in Boston held a topping off ceremony for its new Living and Learning Center, the centerpiece of its landmark One Simmons project, alongside construction and development partner Skanska. Slated to open in January 2027, the 385,000-square-foot Living and Learning Center will serve as a hub for health, wellness and community engagement.
Developed and built by Skanska, the building features a two-story dining hall, event spaces and an athletic and wellness center. The building also includes residences for just under 1,100 students and 360-degree views of the Boston skyline.
Completion of the Living and Learning Center will enable the start of construction for Longwood Place, a 1.7-million-square-foot development that will deliver residential units, laboratory and office, medical/clinical and retail spaces, and 2.6 acres of new publicly accessible open space in the Longwood Medical Area on the Simmons Residents campus.
