by Kristin Harlow March 11, 2026

BOSTON — Shaving products company P&G Gillette has unveiled plans to purchase 232 A Street in South Boston as the future home of its nearly $1 billion Grooming Headquarters and Technical Innovation Center. The company is also expanding its Andover, Mass., manufacturing facility and redeveloping its 31-acre South Boston campus. The new headquarters announcement marks the single-largest investment made by Gillette in Boston, according to the company. The site is currently owned by Breakthrough Properties, a joint venture between Tishman Speyer and Bellco Capital.

Northeast Reader Forecast Survey: 2026 Is Anybody’s Guess

by Taylor Williams March 10, 2026

By Taylor Williams The roller coaster ride continues. That’s more or less the joint takeaway from Northeast Real Estate Business’ annual reader forecast surveys for commercial brokers and developers/owners. For if the past 12 months have revealed anything about the economic and geopolitical factors that impact deal volume, investor sentiment and overall industry health, it’s that those dynamics are wildly unpredictable and highly subject to change. In last year’s survey, respondents across both groups expressed optimism — albeit guarded — for better business prospects in 2025. The incoming Trump administration was viewed as pro-business, and the previous year had ended with a trio of long-awaited cuts to short-term interest rates. Capital sources on both the debt and equity sides of the market envisioned a new, more prosperous chapter in 2025 as 2024 closed with subsided inflation, healthy job growth and less volatility in the 10-year Treasury yield. Editor’s note: In mid-November, Northeast Real Estate Business sent email invitations to participate in the annual online survey to three separate groups — brokers; developers, owners and managers; and lenders and financial intermediaries. The survey was held open through mid-December. Invitations to participate were also included in the Northeast Real Estate Business e-newsletter, as …
