Description: Impact Advisory Group (IAG) meeting to discuss the Notice of Project Change (“NPC”) which describes the proposed changes to the Parcel D2 portion of the Waterside Place Project. OH NBH, LLC, an affiliate of The Davis Companies and Omni Hotels Management Corporation, have proposed the construction of two 21-story hotel towers with a connecting podium on a site owned by the Massachusetts Port Authority (“Massport”). The Summer Street Hotel project will contain approximately 788,500 sf to be comprised of approximately 1,054 hotel rooms, ballrooms, function rooms, meeting spaces, restaurant/retail space, and together with public realm improvements. Please note that the purpose of this meeting is different than that of a traditional community meeting. As part of the development review process, IAG members work closely with BPDA staff to identify the impacts of a project and recommend appropriate community benefits to offset those impacts. IAG meetings prioritize discussion between the project proponent (i.e. the developer) and IAG members. Although anyone is welcome to attend IAG meetings and listen to the discussion, the public meeting on October 25 is the more appropriate forum for the broader public to provide feedback about the project.
