Suffolk provided construction services for a 33-story structure at the corner of Trinity Place and Stuart Street. With a portion of the new 435,500 square-foot building cantilevering over the existing University Club parcel, this building will replace the dated Boston Common Hotel and feature a variety of mixed uses.
The building features a 147-room five-star hotel, 146 residential units, destination restaurant, sky lobby and bar, and high-rise conference center. Community spaces and features include a shared health and fitness center, and a two-story public outdoor patio.

A stylish, modern bar with a circular counter surrounding a tall, illuminated column, featuring shelves of liquor. Large floor-to-ceiling windows reveal a nighttime cityscape and dark blue sky. Plush chairs and sofas are arranged nearby.

Luxurious modern lobby with wooden double doors, elegant lighting, green plants, cozy seating areas, large windows with sheer curtains, and a herringbone wood floor.

The project also includes the addition of 10,000 square feet to be connected internally to the University Club at 426 Stuart Street for the sole use of its members. Due to the project’s location, our team provided support for the wind condition and shadow impact studies during preconstruction. Although these studies took seven years to complete, they resulted in the creation of a uniquely designed building exterior that has gently molded curves that will minimize wind and shadows to the surrounding area.
