Blais’ WBDC quietly has a hand in almost every major development announced in Greater Worcester: the Mercantile Center, the Draper Mill, even Polar Park. WBDC played a major role in what could actually be the city’s most important development underway: remaking the old Worcester State Hospital site off Belmont Street.
It doesn’t get the buzz of some other construction sites, but nothing else is on track to bring in the same mix of tens of millions or more of investment, hundreds of well-paying jobs and corporate names to help place Worcester more firmly as a place to be for life sciences. The Reactory, as the site is known, gives Worcester a better chance to grab a chunk of that pie than most other communities could ever hope for.
