About Us

Established in 1958 Howland Development Company has grown from a small home improvement business into a substantial developer of residential, retail, industrial, warehouse and office space. We have developed, leased and managed more than 3 million square feet of space throughout New England.

Howland Development Company constructs buildings designed to meet the needs for a variety of clients. Typically our project consist of industrial space north of Boston near Rt. 128 and are implemented in increments of 25,000 to 200,000 or more square feet. Most of the buildings provide 22' or more of clearance height to allow the most efficient and varied use of the space. This clearance allows space for stacking palettes and manufacturing. In addition we offer substantial loading areas and 10%-20% office areas or more in these developments. We also provide house sales, distribution and support services. In addition to our Industrial, Warehouse and Office space, Howland Development Company has experience in Building Homes, Research & Development, Multi Story Office and Retail Buildings.

Howland Development is expertly proficient in marketing and leasing properties. This is due to our commitment to do more than just lease space. We spend much of our time locating and researching commercial real estate needs, developing the necessary facilities and matching them with the appropriate clients. We work very hard to understand the needs of potential clients before and during development. When a facility is ready for leasing, tenants appreciate that Howland Development Company has done the homework necessary to ensure their needs are met. This planning and forethought enables us to attract and maintain quality tenants as their space requirements grow and change.

Our commitment to excellence does not stop once a tenant has moved into a Howland Development Company owned building. We have the expertise and resources necessary to manage and maintain our properties at the highest level. Experience has taught us that well maintained buildings are more economical in the long run and keep our tenants happy and satisfied. This is our ultimate goal.

In addition to being recognized by our tenants as a great company to work with, other Real Estate Professionals recognize and respect our commitment to excellence. Our experience in finance, development and property management has enabled us to provide planning, construction, development and management services for both completed and partially competed properties as consultants or on a joint venture basis.
