The love affair between the City of Lowell and a leading national investment platform continues to blossom, with the latest bouquet tossed the Mill City’s way being a prominent spread in their Greater Boston business and economic outlook publication.
Capital Analytic Associates, which previously ran profiles featuring Mayor Danny Rourke and the team of City Manager Tom Golden and Assistant City Manager Connor Baldwin, last week published Invest Boston: 2024-2025.
The in-depth review of key issues facing Greater Boston’s economy, featuring the exclusive insights of prominent business and political leaders throughout the state, also included a special report on the City of Lowell.
The eleven page layout revisits the discussions with Rourke, Golden and Baldwin, while also adding thoughts from the city’s Director of Planning and Development Yovani Baez-Rose, UMass Lowell Chancellor Julie Chen, National Park Superintendent Julie Galonska, Middlesex Community College President Phil Sisson, Greater Lowell Chamber of Commerce President Danielle McFadden and Greater Merrimack Valley Convention and Visitors Bureau Executive Director Brian Bradbury.
While the publication touches on various components of the Greater Boston and Massachusetts economy and the people who spearhead those efforts, the Mill City was the only city to receive a special report highlighting the various economic development projects, the drivers behind them and the future outlook.
