Case Study: Hinckley Allen achieves expanded, modern 52,655 sq. ft. workplace—$1M rent savings and $3.765M tenant‑improvement allowance—with Cresa

Law firm growth requires new workplace design

Hinckley Allen, a Boston law firm facing growth pressures, engaged Cresa for Transaction Management and Project Management to evaluate renewing, extending, or relocating their lease at 28 State Street. The firm needed supplementary space and a more collaborative, efficient, modern workplace design to support clients and employees.

Cresa negotiated new lease terms that lowered rent by $1M for the remaining two years, secured a ten‑year extension and an additional 7,260 SF, and achieved a $3,765,000 tenant improvement allowance to renovate the firm’s 52,655 SF. Cresa also managed a three‑phase interior renovation—renovating two floors, building out a third, and providing swing space to maintain operations—delivering measurable cost savings, expanded space, and a modernized workplace.
