Hi Greentown Community,

I hope you have a wonderful and restful Thanksgiving with loved ones. As December begins, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the year, celebrate all we’ve accomplished together, and start setting our sights on what’s ahead in 2026.

And to keep the holiday spirit going, mark your calendars for our Greentown Community Holiday Party on Thursday, December 11—a family-friendly evening with music, food, and drinks! RSVP here

If you’re looking for a little extra festive fun around Boston this time of year, the Holiday Market at Snowport and the Common’s tree lighting are in full swing—great spots to enjoy the season before winter truly settles in.

For something a bit more local, Union Square is hosting its Jingle event on Sunday, December 7, from 1–6pm, featuring neighborhood shops, maker markets, and seasonal activities throughout the Square.

A quick reminder: Greentown will be observing Thanksgiving on Thursday, November 27 and Native American Heritage Day on Friday, November 28. Campus will be fob-access only on both days. If you need assistance, you can reach the Safety Team at 833.485.7233 (833.GTL.SAFE) or safety@greentownlabs.com.

See you around,
