Investment Matters: Boston's Quiet Powerhouse
Sometimes the most accomplished investors and developers thrive while keeping a relatively low public profile.
That’s clearly true of The Fallon Company. For nearly 20 years, the Boston-based firm has been the driving force behind Fan Pier, the three million-square-foot development
on Boston Harbor that ranks among the most significant urban placemaking initiatives of the past couple of decades.
Hello and welcome back to Investment
