Where was the lab located before its current building? -- Beland (talk) 17:37, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I expanded the History section with some more-detailed descriptions of previous buildings. The 45 Osborne Street building is gone, as is the address; I think that Novartis Pharmaceuticals has a new building on the site. The original 75 Cambridge Parkway building no longer exists, and has been replaced by the Esplanade apartments. Various other MIT I-lab buildings have been reassigned to other uses or demolished. As of 2021, the MIT Museum near Central Square is located in a former I-lab building. Reify-tech (talk) 23:22, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
