Always like to see expansion in the innovation infrastructure! From the Boston Business Journal:

The Cambridge Innovation Center is expanding by half again its Kendall Square office space for startups, adding a net square footage of 42,000 to the 80,000 square feet it already occupies, at a cost of about $6 million.

The lion’s share of new square footage will come as so-called core space — the office space the innovation center builds out on its own and occupies in long-term leases, as opposed to that which it subleases from other tenants, or rents short-term without making improvements. Owner Timothy Rowe said that by designing the space for startups’ flexible needs, he can fit eight desks for every five he can fit in a conventional office layout.
