The property at 25 Fid Kennedy played an integral role in the WWII and post-WWII war effort and is located in the 58 acre South Boston Army Annex, contained within the 167 acre South Boston Naval Annex. After extensive negotiations, EDIC and the Boston Redevelopment Authority awarded Cannistraro Final Designation on June 9, 2016. The lease was executed on August 31, 2016. During the due diligence of the property, Cannistraro developed plans to completely renovate, enhance and redesign the former U.S. Army Annex while preserving the rare Art-Deco character of this massive steel-framed former metal shop. June 14, 2018 was the grand opening to showcase those renovations.
