Lexington Technology Park is one of the best places to do business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Located at the intersection of Route 128 and Route 2 - just minutes from Boston, Cambridge, and the largest cluster of technology, healthcare, and educational organizations in the world - Lexington Technology Park is a premier choice for businesses seeking high quality office, research, and manufacturing space. The park's scenic campus setting, ideal highway access, pre-permitted development sites, and location in one of the state's fastest growing suburban biotechnology hubs give it a natural competitive advantage over other business locations.

Patriot Partners – a partnership of leading local development firms Atlantic Management and Mohawk Partners – purchased the 96.5-acre site in 2003. In November 2009, the Town of Lexington enthusiastically endorsed a plan to expand Lexington Technology Park by 380,000-square-feet of space on two development-ready sites. This planned expansion follows a dramatic six-year transformation of the former Raytheon Global Headquarters into a leading regional destination for world-class biotechnology and technology companies. The park is now home to Shire Pharmaceuticals' Human Genetic Therapies Division, other growing firms, and nearly 40 acres of preserved open space.
