Building Location
Project Opportunity’s office space and shared conference rooms are collocated with the Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center in Building 3 and 4 in the northeast corner of York Village near the end of Grove Street Extension. The buildings are one facility that is tan colored with brown trim and is located at the end of the York Complex Lot. An area specific interactive map is available for reference.
Offices:
To enter the office spaces of Project Opportunity, enter the last door off the walkway on the side of the building facing the York Complex Lot. Use of this walkway is not encouraged in winter due to the steep incline, frequent icy conditions and falling ice.
