Old Town Trolley Tours, a treasured provider of historical and sightseeing tours, proudly announced the grand opening of its new headquarters in Malden. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held with Mayor Gary Christenson and members of the Chamber of Commerce. Following a seamless transition from their old facility in South Boston, Old Town Trolley Tours is now fully operational in its new home on Commercial Street. The company’s iconic trolleys will continue to entertain visitors all about Boston’s captivating history, and the new headquarters will serve as a central hub for administrative, marketing and maintenance activities.
“Our company has locations in eight cities around the country, so we are familiar with working with local governments. Working with the City of Malden has been exceptional in every way. They were responsive and helpful at every turn, and we would not have been able to build our new facility without them,” said CEO Chris Belland of Historic Tours of America, Old Town Trolley Tours’ parent company.
The new facility is equipped with modern amenities and advanced technology, enabling the company to further enhance its operations and provide an even more exceptional experience for its guests. The newly renovated 45,000 square foot facility marks a new chapter for the company, providing a vibrant hub for operations with modern office spaces, expansive garage and maintenance bays and a state-of-the-art training center. The company is actively recruiting and training new employees, with a focus on providing opportunities for local residents to join their team.
“We are incredibly honored to be the new home of such an iconic Boston company and appreciate the employment opportunities they bring for our residents. We look forward to many years of collaborative partnership in the city of Malden,” said Mayor Christenson.
“Since buying this property, everyone in the City of Malden has been overwhelmingly helpful as we worked to turn this property into our new home. From the outset it was clear that Malden is a City that wants to do business, and for anyone thinking about starting, or relocating a business, Malden is a City that wants to say ‘Yes,’” said Historic Tours of America Regional Manager Chris Crompton.
