Welcome to the future of the university campus. Towering 19 stories over the banks of the Charles River, the Duan Family Center for Computing & Data Sciences at Boston University is impossible to miss.

Nestled within the secluded canopy of a private island, Armstrong Cottage emerges as a masterclass in off-grid architecture and environmental stewardship.

A landmark development in the Canary District creates a precedent-setting ecosystem for healing, education, and reconciliation.
