WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
1. From Fenway Center to Back Bay and more, what major projects are in store for Boston’s CRE scene?

2. How are developers dealing with rising construction costs, and is redevelopment the full-proof answer?

3. How will developers and construction companies keep up with the Mayor’s decision to create 69,000 units by 2030 — with a goal that 22% cater to affordable housing for lower and middle-income residents?

4. From residents to office tenants, how is the growing population influencing development trends in Boston?

5. How are developers financing new construction in 2019, as construction costs continue to rise?

WHY THIS MATTERS
According to the Boston Globe, researchers are predicting Boston’s population will spike up to 759,727 residents by 2030, up from a 2030 estimate of 709,400 four years ago. Due to both an influx of high-paying jobs and the increasing popularity of city living, millennials and baby boomers alike are pouring into the city at a rapid pace. But Boston's developers are prepared to make development supply meet a growing demand. Major projects continue to flourish, adding height and opportunity to the Boston skyline. But amongst these major projects and rising construction costs, how will Boston's developers also tackle the city's biggest needs - including improved transit and additional affordable housing in 2019?

Start the New Year right and join Bisnow as we bring together Boston's top developers and thinkers to unpack the overarching trends - and challenges - 2019 will bring. It's an event you won't want to miss!
