After visiting MIT-alums Jason Kelly,
Reshma Shetty, TK and colleagues at
Ginkgo, plus seeing
Ted Acworth from
Artaic during lunch at local seafood house -- two robotics and automation ventures, btw, focused on synthetic biology and mosaic art, respectively -- I got very excited about the
boomzone business park they're located in. This is the newly christened Boston
Innovation District...
"A new approach is called for on the waterfront -- one that is both more deliberate and more experimental... The massive expanse of the South Boston waterfront, with its existing knowledge base, opportunity for growth, and world-class infrastructure is ripe to produce world-class products and services." -- Boston Mayor Menino

P.S. In Mon 26 July 2010
Globe, there's a nice piece by Andrew Ryan,
Ideas percolate in Innovation District, which includes
this map...
