Consisting of 30,000 s/f of office space and 30,000 s/f of warehouse space, it has long occupied a prominent place in the Boston air-freight market. According to Phil Burgess, "After a decade of decline, the recent resurgence in area manufacturing has marked the beginning of what we hope will be a strong and lasting recovery in the air-freight market in Boston. As the primary trucking company serving Boston's air-freight community, it made sense for Eagle Air Freight to step up and purchase the property at this time."
