Description: The Boston Redevelopment Authority ("BRA") received a Project Notification Form ("PNF") and an Institutional Master Plan Notification Form ("IMPNF") from Emmanuel College (the “Applicant”) on November 4, 2015 for the New Julie Hall Project (the "Proposed Project") to be located at 300 Brookline Avenue on the Emmanuel campus. The IMPNF initiates a process for the revision of the Emmanuel Institutional Master Plan ("IMP") by a minor amendment to allow Emmanuel to build the Proposed Project. Both the IMPNF and PNF describe the removal of the existing Julie Hall dormitory building and the construction of a new Julie Hall containing approximately 267,500 sf of gross floor area for approximately 691 beds (including 2 resident director suites), 220 of which will be replacement beds from the existing Julie Hall. A portion of the building will be rented to a third party institutional tenant. There will be below grade parking for up to 30 vehicles. The Proposed Project will be six stories along Brookline Avenue, and nineteen stories on the eastern portion of the site adjacent to Marian Hall. The ground floor will include space for a variety of additional student life and academic uses, including meeting space for student organizations, student lounges and study rooms, a convenience store to support the apartment style living and a function room space on the top floor of the building. The Proposed Project was included in the Emmanuel IMP, which received BRA Board approval on May 15, 2012 and Boston Zoning Commission (“BZC”) approval on June 27, 2012, as amended by the First Amendment approved by the BRA Board on June 12, 2012 and by the BZC on July 12, 2012. Public comment period ends December 7, 2015. Please send comments to Katelyn Sullivan at the Boston Redevelopment Authority, One City Hall Square, Boston, MA 02201 or email to: [email protected] This is a joint Task Force and Public Meeting for the PNF/IMPNF. The Task Force will meet briefly before the start of the LMA Forum meeting at 6PM.
