Thirty-Four-Unit 15,000 sq ft Permanent Modular Office Building & Wet Lab for Pagliuca Harvard Life Lab
Harvard University needed world-class biotech incubator space yesterday. Triumph Modular and MODLOGIQ delivered a thirty-four-unit, 15,000 sq ft permanent modular office building and BSL-2 laboratory in only seven months, giving Boston’s hottest life-sciences startups 30 benches, tissue culture rooms, fume hoods, and a walk-in cold room before the next funding cycle.
The Challenge
Launch a fully equipped life-sciences accelerator in Allston faster than traditional construction allows, without sacrificing Harvard-level quality or lab functionality.
Solution: 7-Month Turnkey Modular Life Sciences Building
Thirty-four steel-framed modular units were factory-built off-site, trucked to Allston, craned onto a conventional foundation, and stitched into a seamless two-story modular building that looks site-built and performs permanently.
