Burlington, MA Timberline Construction Corp. (Timberline) has completed upgrades to the Blue Sky amenities center, a transformative renovation at Nordblom Company’s (Nordblom) 1.3 million s/f Blue Sky Center corporate campus. The 32,200 s/f project reimagines the property’s shared spaces and fitness facilities to elevate the tenant experience and support a more connected, wellness-focused workplace.

The multi-phase project revitalized the campus amenities, introducing a sophisticated and inviting lounge, an upgraded full-service cafeteria and coffee bar featuring grab-and-go options, flexible meeting rooms and a mezzanine-level gaming suite. High-end finishes, contemporary architectural details and custom millwork blend comfort with functionality, creating an energized environment suited for today’s workforce.

The fitness center underwent a complete 7,700 s/f overhaul, including new studios, expanded weight room areas and modernized locker facilities. Exterior improvements strengthen the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces and reinforce the campus’ cohesive aesthetic, including linking the campus’ pickle ball court and outdoor patio.

The space was designed by SMMA and construction was carefully executed in two consecutive phases: 21 weeks for the fitness center and 26 weeks for the amenity renovations. Timberline worked closely with Nordblom and campus tenants to ensure smooth operations and minimal disruption within the occupied building.

“Our tenants are truly enjoying the new amenities – there’s a new energy and sense of community that this new space brings to the campus alongside our robust, experiential programming” said Patrick O’Neill, Nordblom’s SVP, development. “Timberline delivered exceptional quality while keeping both phases of the project moving seamlessly. Because the building remained occupied, it was essential that tenants could continue to use key areas throughout construction, and Timberline consistently prioritized that need.”

“These enhancements reinforce Blue Sky as a leading, high-performing campus where tenants can collaborate, recharge and thrive,” said Jason Emord, project executive and partner at Timberline. “We’re honored to have strengthened our partnership with Nordblom and bring their vision for a modern, amenity-rich workplace to life.”

The completion of the Blue Sky amenities center underscores Timberline Construction’s expertise in delivering complex, phased interior repositioning projects that elevate the value and functionality of commercial properties and clients across New England.

Newmark announces the Company has arranged a 41,411-square-foot top-floor lease for medical technology company Pramand at Blue Sky Center, a world-class office/R&D campus in Burlington, Massachusetts. This move marks the Pramand’s relocation and expansion of its corporate headquarters from Bedford, Massachusetts.

Newmark Senior Managing Director Matthew Malatesta, Executive Managing Director Tyler McGrail, Vice Chairman Michael Frisoli, Associate Director Eric Jeremiah and Associate Connall Chamberlain represented building ownership, a joint venture between Nordblom Company and a global real estate private equity firm, in lease negotiations.

“This lease highlights the strong demand from innovative companies seeking premier work environments,” said Malatesta. “Ownership’s investment at Blue Sky Center reflects a clear vision to create a workplace destination that fosters collaboration and long-term tenant success, and Pramand’s relocation affirms that strategy.”

Ownership recently implemented a $10 million capital improvement program at the campus that will deliver a 40,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art amenity hub designed by architecture firm SMMA. Slated to debut in late Q3 2025, the hub will serve as a vibrant destination designed around collaboration and community, reinforcing Blue Sky Center’s position as an unmatched workplace environment in the market.

Pramand’s commitment comes on the heels of a 36,000-square-foot lease that Newmark arranged with Myomo, another medical technology company specializing in robotics, which signed at 45 Blue Sky and is completing its move-in this summer. Together, these transactions underscore the strong demand for modern, amenity-rich environments at Blue Sky Center.

“Workplace amenities used to be a box-checking exercise, but with individuals now having increased power of choice as to how and where they spend their time, we need to be hyper-focused on the employee experience,” said Crosby Nordblom, Executive Vice President at Nordblom Company. “People want a unique work environment that elevates their productivity and enhances their well-being through thoughtfully designed spaces and programming.”

Blue Sky Center features 1.2 million square feet of premier office, R&D, lab and GMP space. Six of the buildings are connected by secure enclosed walkways and the campus’s amenity hub. Highlights include a new fitness center, a 200-person conference center, an expansive activity center and expansive green spaces. The campus also benefits from proximity to Third Avenue and a high-end lifestyle retail center that abuts the campus, providing tenants with an unmatched depth of amenity offerings.

CBRE’s Jon Varholak and Perry Beal represented the tenant in lease negotiations.
