“LFB’s addition to Marlborough’s expanding biotech cluster reinforces the positive outlook for the MetroWest region,” said Jon Cocker, institutional studio head at Maugel Architects.  “For more than two decades, Maugel has been designing labs and life sciences facilities in the Boston suburbs. It was a pleasure working with LFB on this exciting new facility in MetroWest.”
