Maple Grove’s ‘Project Black Bear’ Identified As Major Boston Scientific Expansion

Maple Grove’s largest employer, Boston Scientific, confirms that it’s the company planning a $170 million expansion in the city.

City officials had called the expansion plans by the code name “Project Black Bear.”

Boston Scientific is planning to build a new 400,000-square-foot campus in the gravel mining area just down the road from Lowe’s.

The project is expected to bring nearly 200 new jobs to the area. City documents (Agenda item 7A) say the office will consist of research and development labs.

Last month, the city approved a more than $6 million tax-increment financing agreement to help make it happen.

Boston Scientific sent CCX News this statement when asked about new campus:
