A communication transmitted from Louis A. DePasquale, City Manager, relative to a request from Boston Properties Limited Partnership (“Boston Properties”) asking to modify two existing open space restrictive covenants on two parks, Broadway Park (also known as South Park) and Binney Park (also known as North Park). Boston Properties has indicated that this request is being made to facilitate the relocation of Eversource’s proposed electrical substation from its property at 135 Fulkerson Street to the so-called “Blue Garage” site within the Mixed-Use Development (MXD) District in Kendall Square owned by affiliates of Boston Properties Limited Partnership (“BPLP”), as contemplated by the zoning amendment ordained by the City Council on February 3, 2021 as Ordinance No. 2020-17 (the “2021 MXD Amendment”) and the further build-out of this site as described below and will include replacement of the open space that will be lost due to this project

Re: Kendall Center
Dear City Manager DePasquale:
This letter is to respectfully request that the modification of the open space restriction
covenants described below be placed on the City Manager's Agenda for transmittal to the City
Council at the meeting scheduled for June 27, 2022.
This request is being made to facilitate the relocation of Eversource's proposed electrical
substation from its property at 135 Fulkerson Street to the so-called "Blue Garage" site with the
Mixed-Use Development (MXD) District in Kendall Square owned by affiliates of Boston
Properties Limited Partnership ("BPLP"), as contemplated by the zoning amendment ordained
by the City Council on February 3, 2021 as Ordinance No. 2020-17 (the "2021 MXD
Amendment).
By way of background, the "Blue Garage" site is part of Boston Properties' Kendall
Center (formerly known as Cambridge Center) development, which began in 1979 when Boston
Properties was designated as the "developer of record" for a portion of the Kendall Square Urban
Renewal Area under the Kendall Square Urban Renewal Plan (now known as the Kendall Square
Urban Redevelopment Plan) (the "KSURP"). The KSURP was adopted by the City of
Cambridge (the "City"') in 1965 in order to facilitate redevelopment within the 42-acre project
area and eliminate the blighted conditions and urban decay that had previously characterized the
area. In furtherance of that goal, the City adopted Article 14.000 of the Cambridge Zoning
Ordinance to specifically govern land use and development within the so-called "Mixed-Use
Development (MXD) District of the Urban Renewal Area in which the Kendall Center
development is located. Since its original designation in 1979, Boston Properties has completed
a total of seventeen buildings and three parking garages within Kendall Center as part of a master
planning effort with the Cambridge Redevelopment Authority (the "CRA"), the City Council, the
Planning Board, the Community Development Department (the "CDD") and other municipal
boards and neighborhood groups.
1
As you are aware, the proposal to relocate the Eversource substation from the Fulkerson
Street residential neighborhood was responsive to a planning priority identified by the City and
has been the subject of extensive discussion and review. The MXD Amendment provided the
pathway for this relocation from a zoning perspective. As was indicated in various public forums
during which the substation relocation process and the 2021 MD Amendment were discussed,
the complexity of constructing a project of this nature requires that the open space areas known
as Broadway Park and Binney Park (as shown on Exhibit A attached to this letter) be utilized in
order to accommodate the project.
Broadway Park (also known as South Park) consists of 13,970 square feet located on
certain parcels of land owned by the Trustees of Cambridge Center North Trust, the Trustees of
Ten Cambridge Center Trust and the Trustees of Eleven Cambridge Center Trust. It is subject to
an Open Space Restriction Covenant dated March 19, 1990 and recorded with the Middlesex
South District Registry of Deeds (the "Registry") in Book 20443, Page 165 (the "Broadway
Covenant"), a copy of which is attached to this letter as Exhibit B. The area subject to the
Broadway Covenant is shown as the "Open Space Easement" on sheet 11 of that certain plan
" Sheets 1
entitled "Master Easement Plan in Cambridge, MA, prepared for Boston Properties",
through 12, prepared by Allen Demurjian Major & Nitsch and dated November 7, 1988 and
finally revised April 5, 1989 (the "Easement Plan"), which Easement Plan was recorded with the
Registry as Plan No. 253 of 1990 in Book 20443, Page 1. A copy of the Sheet 11 of the
Easement Plan is attached to this letter as Exhibit C.
Binney Park (also known as North Park) consists of 7,815 square feet located on a certain
parcel of land owned by the Trustees of Eleven Cambridge Center Trust. It is subject to an Open
Space Restriction Covenant dated March 19, 1990 and recorded with the Registry in Book
20443, Page 171 (the "Binney Covenant"), a copy of which is attached to this letter as Exhibit D.
The Broadway Covenant and the Binney Covenant are sometimes hereinafter referred to
collectively as the "Covenants." The area subject to the Binney Covenant is shown as the "Open
Space Easement" on the Easement Plan referenced in the immediately preceding paragraph as
Exhibit C.
The Covenants were put in place in order to comply with the provisions of Section 14.42
of the Zoning Ordinance and with the KSURP, which both require that a minimum of 100,000
square feet be reserved or designated as public open space for public use and enjoyment within
the MXD District. Section 14.42 specifies a number of methods for creating the requisite
amount of open space, including "dedication, by covenant or comparable legal instrument, to the
community use of the residents, lessees and visitors to the District for reasonable amounts of
time on a regular basis."
As shown on Exhibit E, the proposed project will completely reconfigure the "Blue
Garage", Broadway Park and Binney Park sites. The existing "Blue Garage" would be
demolished, with the parking to be replaced in an underground facility on the site. A new
residential building would be constructed on portions of the Broadway Park site and existing
garage site, and a new commercial building would be constructed on portions of the Binney Park
site and the existing garage site. In addition, key transmission and distribution infrastructure for
the proposed Eversource substation would be located beneath the Broadway Park and Binney
2
Park sites in the cross-hatched areas shown on Exhibit F, with portions of the proposed
residential building and western commercial building to be built above these infrastructure
elements. Accordingly, and as previously stated during the prior public hearings on the MXD
Amendment, the Covenants will need to be terminated in order to allow for the project to
proceed. This would result in a temporary reduction of the dedicated public open space within
the MXD District of 21,785 square feet, from 217,369 total square feet to 195,584 total square
feet. As described below, new open space within the MIXD District will be provided as an
element of the project, and will consist of approximately 28,455 square feet, with 26,602 square
feet being "usable" space. This results in a net gain of approximately 4,700 square feet of usable
public open space in the area. A new open space covenant will be held in escrow until the parcel
of land upon which it is to be located has been created, at which time it will be recorded with the
Registry and will take effect upon the completion of the build out of the substation and the open
space. The proposed form of the new covenant is attached hereto as Exhibit G.
The Covenants, which expire in March 2030, both provide that they may be terminated
by a majority vote of the City Council with the approval of the grantor. This letter is to
respectfully request that the proposed termination of the Covenants be presented to the City
Council by the City Manager. Attached as Exhibit H is the proposed form of termination for the
Broadway Covenant, and attached as Exhibit I is the proposed form of termination for the
Binney Covenant.
In connection with the foregoing, it should be noted that the proposed project shown on
Exhibit E required the issuance of an amendment to the existing Infill Development Special
Permit PB 315 issued by the Planning Board on March 20, 2017 (as amended by Amendment #1
issued on January 31, 2019). This amendment, which was approved by the Planning Board on
March 15, 2022, was the subject of a comprehensive joint review by the Planning Board and the
CRA as set forth in Section 14.73 of the Zoning Ordinance, and included the review of "a project
specific open space plan depicting the design of open space provided on site and any Public
Open Space contributions to the area to be executed by the Project." The Infill Development
Concept Plan process was added to Article 14.000 of the Zoning Ordinance in December of
2015, and provides for a more holistic assessment of open space throughout the MIX District in
lieu of the somewhat formulaic approach that existed under earlier incarnations of Article
14.000. BPLP has worked in close collaboration with the CRA and CDD staff, and also hosted
multiple community forums, to facilitate the design and programming of an active new open
space within the project area. Thus, the elimination of open space from the "Blue Garage" site
will be a temporary one. Not only has the proposed open space component of the proposed
project been thoroughly evaluated by the Planning Board and the CRA, but, as shown on the
side-by-side comparison plan attached to this letter as Exhibit J, it is also expected that this new
open space will be larger in area and more functional for the public than the existing Broadway
and Binney Parks.
In addition to enabling the relocation of the Eversource substation from the Fulkerson
Street residential neighborhood to the "Blue Garage" site and the provision of new open space as
part of this project, BPLP is also proposing to extend current expiration dates for the Open Space
Restriction Covenants attached as Exhibits K and L that comprise Danny Lewin Park from
March 10, 2038 to March 10, 2081 and to finance targeted improvements to be planned by the
3
CRA on Danny Lewin Park, including the removal of existing brick walls and associated
his open space.

This COVENANT, made effective as of this
Bryan J. Koop and David C. Provost, as Trustees of Cambridge Center North Trust under
Declaration of Trust dated August 17, 1988 and recorded with the Middlesex South District
Registry of Deeds (the "Registry") in Book 19383, Page 203, as amended, having an office
c/o Boston Properties, Inc., 800 Boylston Street, Suite 1900, Boston, Massachusetts 02199-
8103 (the "Grantor").
The following are facts relevant to the execution of this Covenant:
A.
The Grantor is the owner in fee of a parcel of land known as and numbered
290 Binney Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, containing 72,613 square feet, more or less
("Tract X"), which is shown as "Tract X" on a plan entitled "Subdivision/Consolidation Plan
in Cambridge, Massachusetts" prepared by Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. and dated April
11, 2017, recorded with the Middlesex South District Registry of Deeds (the "Registry") as
Plan No. 509 of 2017 by deed dated March 19, 1990 recorded with said Registry in Book
20443, Page 144.
Contained within Tract X is a surface parcel of land containing 28,455 square
feet, more or less, which is shown as "Center Plaza Public Open Area" on Exhibit A attached
hereto (the "Center Plaza Open Space Area").
The Center Plaza Open Space Area is a component of phased project
approved by the City of Cambridge Planning Board (the "Planning Board") in Amendment
#2 (Major) to Infill Development Special Permit PB #315 dated March 15, 2022 (the "IDCP
Special Permit Amendment") and recorded with the Registry in Book 80298, Page 375.
The IDCP Special Permit Amendment contemplates that the improvements to
the Center Plaza Open Space Area will be constructed upon the completion by NSTAR
Electric Company, a Massachusetts corporation d/b/a Eversource Energy ("Eversource") of
an electrical substation and related equipment and supporting infrastructure (the
"Substation") on a parcel of land located underneath the Center Plaza Open Space Area.
E.
By the dedication thereof as set forth herein, the Center Plaza Open Space
Area shall constitute public open space under Section 14.42 of the Zoning Ordinance for the
City of Cambridge.
NOW THEREFORE, the Grantor, hereby imposes the following restrictions on the
Center Plaza Open Space Area, and assumes the following obligations in connection
therewith:
(a)
Upon completion of the Center Plaza Open Space Area and issuance of a final
certificate of occupancy for the Substation, the Center Plaza Open Space Area shall be used
only: (1) to provide light and air to the surrounding buildings and improvements; (2) for
scenic, recreational, or similar open space purposes; (3) for access to, and operation,
maintenance, repair and replacement of the Substation or for any other purpose otherwise
associated with the Substation, including for the use and maintenance by Eversource of any
equipment or infrastructure located within or related to the Center Plaza Open Space Area
and for emergency management related to the Substation, as set forth and to the extent
permitted herein; (4) for pedestrian ingress and egress to and from the buildings and other
improvements that may be constructed from time to time on parcels adjacent to the Center
Plaza Open Space Area; (5) for public use and enjoyment; and (6) for such other purposes as
are specified in the IDCP Special Permit Amendment and design approvals by the Planning
Board and the Cambridge Redevelopment Authority (the "CRA) in each case as the same
may be amended from time to time. Subject to the foregoing, the Center Plaza Open Space
Area shall be open and available to the community use of residents and lessees of, and
visitors to, the MXD District, seven days a week, and shall at all times referred to herein be
accessible from a public way: provided that Grantor may (i) after 30 days' prior written
notice to the City Manager of the City of Cambridge, or his successor or designee, adopt
reasonable rules and regulations as may be approved by said City Manager, or his successor
or designee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, for
the purposes of safety and security to persons and property, with respect to the use and
operation of the Center Plaza Open Space Area, which rules and regulations may, inter alia,
modify the days and hours during which the Center Plaza Open Space Area shall be open and
available for community use as aforesaid; and (ii) adopt such additional rules and regulations
as may be approved by said City Manager, or his successor or designee, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The notice to said City Manager
hereinabove required shall set forth the proposed rules and regulations, a brief explanation of
the reason for such rules and regulations, the proposed effective date of such rules and
regulations and an offer to meet with said City Manager, or his successor or designee, at least
30 days prior to the proposed implementation of such proposed rules and regulations.
Notwithstanding such rules, Eversource shall have the right, in perpetuity, to take such
actions as it deems necessary, consistent with prudent utility practices, to manage
emergencies, including outages and which may include restricting access to the Center Plaza
Open Space Area, or portions thereof, without prior notice if required and for so long as is
required to protect life and safety of persons or the Substation.
No such rules and regulations shall be valid if they frustrate the requirements
of the Zoning Ordinance that the Center Plaza Open Space Area be open and available to the
community use of the residents, lessees and visitors to the MD District for reasonable
amounts of time on a regular basis and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof.
Notwithstanding such rules, Eversource shall have the right to take such actions as it may
deem necessary, consistent with prudent utility practices, to manage emergencies, including
outages and including restricting access to the Center Plaza Open Space Area, or portions
thereof, without prior notice if required and for so long as is required to protect life and
safety of persons or the Substation.
The aforesaid restriction regarding the use and enjoyment of the Center Plaza
(c)
Open Space Area (including exceptions granted to Eversource pursuant to the terms hereof)
shall be a burden on the Center Plaza Open Space Area, and shall run to the benefit of, and
shall be enforceable by, the City of Cambridge. The Center Plaza Open Space Area is
subject to those easements, encumbrances and other title exceptions in effect as of the date
hereof, as well as any future easements that may be necessary in order to effectuate the
completion of the development contemplated by the IDCP Special Permit Amendment
(provided that any future easements shall not frustrate the requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance that the Center Plaza Open Space Area be open and available to the community
use of the residents, lessees and visitors to the MXD District for reasonable amounts of time
on a regular basis and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to the
Eversource exceptions relating to the Substation described herein).
(d)
The Grantor covenants and agrees to keep in effect, or cause to be kept in
effect, at all times, general liability insurance naming the City of Cambridge and the CRA as
additional insureds, with limits of not less than $1,000,000/$5,000,000 against claims for
injury to or death of one or more than one person, not less than $1,000,000 for property
damage and not less than $500,000 for medical payments, and umbrella coverage in an
amount not less than $5,000,000 (or such greater limits as said City Manager, or his
successor or designee, or the CRA, or its successor public body, may reasonably require from
time to time) due to alleged incidents occurring on or about the Center Plaza Open Space
Area. The Grantor shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished promptly to the City of
Cambridge and the CRA certificates of insurance of all insurance such policies, and upon
request therefor, the Grantor shall promptly furnish, or cause to be furnished promptly, to the
CRA and the City of Cambridge, copies of all above mentioned insurance policies, and
evidence, reasonable satisfactory to the CRA and the City of Cambridge, that the aforesaid
insurance is being maintained.
(e)
The Grantor covenants and agrees to maintain, or cause to be maintained, the
Center Plaza Open Space Area and all improvements thereon (including, without limitation,
any landscaping) in an attractive, good, clean and sanitary condition, free of debris, and all
pedestrian paths and passageways located on the Center Plaza Open Space Area as well as
those paths and passageways providing public access to and from the Center Plaza Open
Space Area shall be maintained sufficiently free of snow and ice to provide adequate and safe
pedestrian access in accordance with City of Cambridge Department of Public Works'
guidelines or direction.
This Covenant shall terminate automatically without the requirement of the
execution or recordation of any further instrument of termination fifty (50) years from the
date hereof.
Subject to the provisions of paragraphs (f) and (i), this Covenant may not be
(g)
amended, modified or terminated except by a majority vote of the City Council of the City of
Cambridge and with the approval of the Grantor, its successors-in-title and assigns.
The rights and obligations of the Grantor hereunder (including, without
limitation, the right to adopt rules and regulations pursuant to the terms thereof) shall be
appurtenant to and a burden upon the Center Plaza Open Space Area and shall run to the
benefit of, and be enforceable by, the City of Cambridge,and by Eversource, but only to the
extent of the limited benefits granted to Eversource described herein.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Eversource's use
of the Center Plaza Open Space Area from time to time as necessary and only for so long as
necessary for the limited purposes of constructing, operating and maintaining the Substation
(including, without limitation, any improvements owned by Eversource on the Center Plaza
Open Space Area) shall not be deemed to frustrate the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance
that the Center Plaza Open Space Area be open and available to the community use of the
residents, lessees and visitors to the MXD District for reasonable amounts of time on a
regular basis; provided, however, that any temporary restrictions placed on access to the
Center Plaza Open Space Area in connection with any such necessary construction,
operations and maintenance shall be consistent with prudent utility practices in light of the
nature of the work being done by Eversource within the Substation that requires such
temporary access restrictions.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Covenant to be duly
executed, under seal, on the day and year first above written.
