Fitchburg Center, the real 440-acre mixed-use community home to Promega Corporation's global headquarters, anchors the city's biotech/tech-cluster identity and nearby residential development.
McKee Farms Park and surrounding neighborhoods
McKee Farms Park, built on a real former McKee-family farmstead, anchors one of Fitchburg's most popular residential and recreational areas.
