Save That Stuff Tour

The Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA) and its partners from ABM had the opportunity to tour Save That Stuff in Charlestown, MA. Founded in 1990 by Erik Levy, Save That Stuff is a waste collection facility that offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional waste disposal methods. Save That Stuff helps educational and governmental institutions like the MCCA uphold commitments to corporate social responsibility, sustainability, and cost control. The MCCA has worked with Save That Stuff for 10 years to reduce our convention centers’ recyclable waste. In a typical year, the MCCA recycles an average of 774 tons between the Hynes and the BCEC with Save That Stuff!

Plans to expand South Boston convention center underway with approval for land purchase funds

The Massachusetts Convention Center Authority is reviving efforts to expand the Menino Convention & Exhibition Center in South Boston, while broadening its business model to plan its own meetings aimed at Boston’s fast-growing industries.

 

On Thursday, interim executive director John Barros took an important step toward expanding the 22-year-old convention center by securing board approval to use $55 million to relocate an adjacent state highway facility, as well as other land acquisition needs.

 

Barros does not yet have formal plans or cost estimates for the addition. He plans to hold business and community meetings, working with outside consultancy Deloitte, to come up with a proposal by the end of the year. The quasi-public authority would then, in early 2027, file a bill to secure the Legislature’s approval to issue bonds that would pay for the expansion.
