Waypoint Companies building 82,400 s/f Ninety_o development for Helge Capital and Gansett Ventures
Revere, MA Helge Capital and Gansett Ventures are building Ninety_o, a modern multifamily development at 90 Ocean Ave. Suitably billed as, “Something to Really Revere”, this transit-oriented development will provide 75 premium apartments near Revere Beach, in the emerging beachfront corridor just minutes from downtown Boston. Construction on this 82,400 s/f project is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2020.
Living on a beach and within a quarter-mile of mass transit is a dream for most, but Ninety_o is among the very few residential projects turning that dream into reality. A walk to the MBTA Blue Line or a drive down Rte. 1-A or I-93 are all that separates residents from all the nightlife, culture and cuisine downtown Boston has to offer. Ninety_o will offer both surface and underground parking. A mix of one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments will be attractive to individuals, couples and small families. Ninety_o will feature an array of amenities, including rooftop lounge and fitness center and a “work from home” space.
“The strength and growth of the Revere multifamily market is very attractive to us and we are thrilled with this project,” said Helge Capital chief executive officer Oleg Uritsky. “We pride ourselves on our ability to find and then create value. We look forward to delivering a competitive yet affordable product to the market. Ninety_o offers mid-market prices with beach lifestyle upside”
“The timing for this project could not be better,” said Gansett Ventures president Caleb Manchester. “Revere Beach is quickly becoming recognized as a desirable, exciting place to live, with easy access of downtown Boston. Ninety_o fits perfectly with the vibe of this neighborhood.”
Ninety_o was designed by LaFreniere Architects and is being constructed by Waypoint Companies.

State legislature ends session without passing PLA bill - by Joe Camilo
Massachusetts taxpayers dodged a bullet when the state Senate didn’t take up legislation passed by the House in the waning moments of the legislative session that would have made it easier for municipalities and state agencies to use union-only project labor agreements (PLAs) on construction projects.
The design-build advantage: Integrated interior design solutions - by Parker Snyder
When it comes to corporate interior spaces for both commercial and industrial projects, partnering with a design-build firm with in-house interior design services can offer clients many benefits.

Ask the Electrician: How do I prepare my commercial building for a disaster?
New England’s notorious weather – from fierce winter storms to summer squalls and fall hurricanes – can leave businesses in the dark. While power outages are often blamed on storms, they can also be caused by unforeseen events like accidents or construction mishaps. While it’s impossible to prevent disasters and power outages entirely, proactive preparation can significantly minimize their impact on your commercial building.
Ask the Electrician: Is summer a prime time for commercial electrical maintenance?
The answer is “Yes!” While January marks the official new year, many businesses view September as a fresh start. This makes summer an ideal time for commercial property owners to schedule long-term electrical maintenance projects.
