46-acre project off I-495 to create housing, retail and jobs in Littleton

A 46-acre mixed-use redevelopment project in Littleton has leased tens of thousands of square feet to a global computer hardware manufacturer in one of the region’s largest leases this year, site developer Lupoli Companies said Tuesday.

The King Street Crossing project is located at 550 King St., just off Interstate 495. In addition to reusing existing buildings on the site, approximately 2.3 million square feet will be converted into multi-purpose buildings and outdoor community spaces.

The project also includes the construction of a new city hall building for Littleton.

Of the planned 600,000 square feet for office and laboratory space, HIPER Global has leased 72,500 square feet for its new U.S. headquarters.

The world-class electronic hardware manufacturer already has offices in North Andover, Marlborough and Atlanta, Georgia. It works with leading technology and defense companies around the world on “computer solutions.”

According to the team at site developer Lupoli Companies, there has been less activity in leasing flexible and office space in “recent years.” This makes HIPER’s commercial lease of this square footage one of the largest deals in the area this year, they said.

“We are very pleased to welcome HIPER Global as our tenant in Littleton,” said Sal Lupoli, CEO and president of King Street Crossing site developer Lupoli Companies, in a press release.

HIPER Global CEO Jim Reinold said King Street Crossing is a “perfect fit” for the company’s “growth and innovative spirit.” He added that the company’s presence in the project will be “more than just office space” and will foster a relationship between community and technology.

Plans for the massive multi-use complex also include 1,089 residential units, a 150-room flagship hotel and outdoor public green space for events and gatherings.
