About

470 Atlantic Avenue, also known as Independence Wharf, sits on the historic site where the Boston Tea Party began—an enduring symbol of change. Once a 20th-century maritime warehouse, it has been transformed into a 14-story, Class A building that blends historic legacy with future-focused innovation. Located at the corner of Seaport Boulevard and Atlantic Avenue, it offers modern office and lab space with state-of-the-art amenities, including a fitness center, bike storage, lockers and showers, patio seating, and a roof deck. Surrounded by the Harborwalk and overlooking Fort Point Channel, the building is steps from Fort Point, the Seaport, and the Financial District’s restaurants and entertainment. Certified LEED Gold and just a 5-minute walk from South Station—with access to the Red Line, Amtrak, and commuter rails—it also offers direct connectivity to I-90 and I-93, making it a hub for growth, accessibility, and visionary enterprise.
