Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company today broke ground for a 17-story, 310,000-square-foot building at 10 Fan Pier Boulevard in Boston, on the Boston waterfront.
The Springfield, Massachusetts-based insurer says it will be keeping its headquarters in Springfield, but that it plans to consolidate some facilities in other parts of the country. The realignment could lead to MassMutual bringing about 1,000 jobs to the new building in Boston.

MassMutual employees angling for the best office locations should know that the building will offer terrace levels on the 13th floor as well as on the rooftop.
