O’Brien fi rst asked the council to refer to that building as a Life Sciences building rather than biolab. He explained that when the project was fi rst designed, the Life Sciences industry was thriving and growing. HYM felt it was conceivable to bring that type of facility to Revere. He mentioned huge companies like Pfi zer moving into the city creating jobs and revenue. “We thought, this is possible, we can make this happen in Revere,” said O’Brien. But the Life Sciences industry has slowed and the Life Sciences building at Suff olk Downs has been paused until industry conditions change. O’Brien said the jobs created will not be exclusively for PhDs from MIT and Harvard. The majority of jobs will be for lab technicians who need high school diplomas and a certifi cate or certifi cation. “Those are great jobs that pay $70,000 to $80,000 a year,” said O’Brien. The foundation for the Life Sciences building has been completed and the building itself has been designed and is ready to go. O’Brien stressed that HYM and its investors have already spent $600 million at Suff olk Downs. “We want to advance this project as aggressively as possible. No one is walking away,” he said. process, Mr. Barden was highly impressive. Barden began his career in 2001 as a classroom teacher at the Donald P. Timony Grammar School in Methuen.
