Somerville, MA – Dacon Corporation of Natick will construct a new 32,000sf office and manufacturing facility for energy incubator Greentown Labs.
Dacon will be providing design/build mechanical service, fire protection and electrical engineering in the space, which will be built in the former Ames Safety Envelope Plant in Somerville.
Greentown is moving out of Boston to a space better suited for its specific needs, and Dacon is working closely with the firm to ensure that the new facility meets its growing requirements.
Greentown Labs provides prototyping space, a machine shop, an electronics lab and the high ceilings, and loading docks required by its clients are becoming harder to find in the city.
The company currently rents space to 28 different start-ups, consulting firms and nonprofits involved in the energy field and will be able to accommodate a large portion of its waiting list with the new facility.
