Boston Celtics training and practice facility will be part of Boston Landing mixed-use development

The facility will also include two floors of Class A laboratory and office space and retail space.


By David Malone, Associate Editor | April 21, 2017

Boston Landing is a massive transit-oriented urban development located just minutes from downtown Boston. The development includes 650,000 sf of office and laboratory space, a 175-room hotel, a track and field sports center, a 295-unit residential building, 80,000 sf of retail space, and 1.4 acres of landscaped open space.

Also included in the development will be the Auerbach Center at New Balance World Headquarters, the Boston Celtics new 71,000-sf training and practice facility. The facility, located at 40 Guest St., will be one component of a 160,000 sf building. The training and practice facility will occupy 71,000 sf of space. 83,500 sf across two floors will be used for Class A laboratory and office space and an additional 5,700 sf will be set aside for retail space.

The Auerbach Center isn’t the only professional sports practice facility found at Boston Landing. The development is also home to the Boston Bruins practice facility.

The Auerbach Center broke ground in 2016 with completion expected in mid-2018. Elkus Manfredi Architects is the architect for the project.
