The building would be called Three Crescent Drive, the next phase of Liberty’s Navy Yard Corporate Center, which already includes one new office building, the person said.Separately, Liberty also intends to develop an additional 15 acres next to the Tasty Baking site for “other distribution operations,” according to the person.
