Atlantic Works is a historic building in East Boston, Massachusetts, United States. Located at 80 Border Street at its junction with Maverick Street,[1] [2] it was built in 1893 as the offices for Bethlehem Atlantic Works, a subsidiary of Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation, which was in business from 1853 until 1984 and produced steamship boilers and engines. It was the largest manufacturing company in East Boston for over a century.[3]
The company moved here from Chelsea and Marion Streets, a few blocks to the northeast.[4] [5] The building was renovated in 2010. As of 2021, it is the home of Atlantic Works Cultural Center and Atlantic Works Gallery, an artists' space.[5]
The building appears in the 2015 film Black Mass in the scene in which Johnny Depp's character Whitey Bulger picks up his new recruit, Kevin Weeks.
