• Berkeley Partners Buys 2 Industrial Buildings For $36M: The Boston Deal Sheet (bisnow.com) — A major 596,000-square-foot life sciences complex at 120-132 Middlesex Ave. in Somerville has secured city approval, though construction will wait until a tenant signs on. The project's entitlements position the site for future lab or research use, potentially bringing jobs and tax revenue, while other Massachusetts housing and industrial deals highlight broader development momentum around Greater Boston.
• Cambridge historian, Somerville comics press honored with Massachusetts Book Awards (cambridgeday.com) — A Somerville-based comics publisher, Bulgilhan Press, has been honored with a Massachusetts Book Award for its U.S. edition of the wordless comics collection "Slices of Life." The recognition highlights the work of local publisher Zachary Clemente alongside Cambridge historian Jill Lepore, underscoring how Massachusetts creators are shaping both comics culture and constitutional history.
