The Helix Park Master Plan spans 37 acres and includes approximately 5 million square feet of anticipated development. The plan emphasizes creative collisions between people, institutions and ideas, bolstered by a state-of-the-art infrastructure that will support a collaborative mix of healthcare, life science and business users.

In helping to plan Helix Park, lead architect David Manfredi drew on years ot experience working with Greater Boston’s leading universities, hospitals and life science innovators. The result is a Houston campus that reflects the present – and future – needs of the fast-moving life sciences industry. In addition, purposeful, growth-focused capital investments will foster an ever-expanding network of business partners throughout the campus, from entrepreneurial ventures to Fortune 100 companies.

This efficient, comprehensive ecosystem will enable TMC to leverage the collective expertise of leaders in science, academia, medicine and commerce at an unprecedented scale, rapidly translating discovery into the advancement of human care. Because the future of health care is not only in our sights, but also in our hands.
