Blackstone Station was originally a coal-fired electricity plant. Harvard University acquired the site, which now generates steam for University-wide use. While the main plant will continue in that capacity, the historic masonry outbuildings have been restored and sensitively transformed into offices and workshops for the University Operations Services (UOS).
