Callahan Construction tops off 111,100 s/f Hilton Garden Inn

Brookline, MA  Callahan Construction Managers (Callahan) celebrated the topping off of the Hilton Garden Inn Boston/Brookline. The project is being developed by Claremont Companies, with CambridgeSeven Associates serving as the architect, Stantec for civil & landscape, Odeh on structural, and WSP as the MEP/FP engineer.

The 11-story Hilton Garden Inn will feature 174 rooms, a restaurant and lounge area, conference space, fitness center, swimming pool, business center, and a 24-hour pavilion pantry. The 111,100 s/f hotel will also house a ground-floor café with outdoor seating. Additionally, a 70-space parking garage will be located on the hotel’s second level, providing ease of access for guests.

“Callahan is thrilled to be working on this high-profile hotel project just outside Boston,” said Steve Callahan, vice president of business development at Callahan. “The Hilton Garden Inn’s location on the Brookline/Boston line will provide much-needed hospitality services to the Greater Boston area.”

The property sought to maximize space at the narrow .437-acre lot. A curved corner design draws attention to the building, which sits at the intersection of Brookline Ave. and Rte. 9. With the topping off now complete, Callahan will begin work on the building’s glass façade.

“CambridgeSeven is pleased to be working with Callahan Construction on this special project in Brookline for Claremont Companies,” said Gary Johnson, principal & president of CambridgeSeven.

Located at 700 Brookline Ave., the property is the former site of a Gulf gas station that was demolished in 2016. The building is located adjacent to the Longwood Medical area and one block to the Riverway T Station. The Hilton Garden Inn select service hotel is set to open in fall 2020.
