The Arthur D. Little Inc., Building is a National Historic Landmark at 30 Memorial Drive[2] in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

The three-story brick building on Memorial Drive was constructed by the company to meet increasing demand for laboratory space, and is an architecturally unexceptional commercial structure.

Prior to its founding, individual businesses established their own research laboratories to make technological innovations.

Little, and his partner William H. Walker, were among the first academically oriented researchers to create a consulting laboratory whose services could be hired by businesses.

At first focused on the chemistry of cellulose and its uses in textiles and paper, the company was by 1909 the largest consulting industrial laboratory in the nation, and worked a wide array of research disciplines.
