ARC/Architectural Resources Cambridge will design a new research facility for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at the Longwood Center in Boston’s Longwood medical area.

The research facility will be located in approximately 154,000 square feet of space on five floors and will incorporate sustainable design principles consistent with U.S. Green Building Council Silver LEED standards.  Work on the project is expected to commence in 2012 with phased occupancy to begin at the end of 2014.

"We’re extremely excited to be working with the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute on this important research facility," Arthur Cohen, founding principal of ARC, said in a statement. "Great strides are being made in the field of cancer research, and this new laboratory will contribute greatly to the search for cures."

In addition to Cohen, ARC principal Jeff Johnson and Senior Associate Bryan Thorp will lead the project for ARC.
