The American Seafood Exchange, a USD 69 million project featuring a 422,000-square-foot seafood processing and cold-storage facility in Boston’s Seaport District, has a director.
Daniel Johnson of IN-SITE LLC, Project Advisory will oversee the project. Johnson will guide the seafood processing and distribution center from its current stage — planning and permitting — through its opening. He will lead the project team through all aspects of the development process, including market analysis, design and construction and final tenant lease agreements.
In March, the Boston Redevelopment Authority approved the tentative designation of American Seafood Exchange’s project for parcels M and N of its Marine Industrial Park at 3 Dolphin Way.
American Seafood Exchange will include a public display auction, public cold storage, fresh transfer and public packing houses and retail space. It is expected to create more than 300 union construction jobs and up to 1,500 permanent jobs and stimulate region-wide job growth in the seafood industry.
Johnson also guided the development process for Boston’s 400,000-square-foot International Cargo Port, a USD 53 million long-term ground lease project with Massport.
