Millennium Tower Boston is the new 1.1 million sq ft. mixed-use project located in Downtown Crossing, Boston. The slender tower will house residential and retail space, while the adjacent 1912 Filene's Department Store designed by Daniel Burnham is being renovated to include both office and retail space. When complete, Millennium Tower Boston will be the tallest residential building in Boston.

The site is in the center of one of Boston's busiest areas, and the 231,000 SF of retail space is positioned to take advantage of the large pedestrian volume. Above, up to 600 residential units, both condominium and rental, will have a mix of one, two, three, and four-bedroom units.

Part of Handel Architects’ scope involves preserving the existing Burnham Building, with renovations totaling 185,000 SF of office space and 100,000 SF of retail. In addition, there will be up to 550 parking spaces below grade.
