Description:

This Notice of Project Change (NPC) is a portion of the originally approved Congress Square project. Hemisphere Development Group, LLC proposes changes to 15 Congress Street that include approximately 116 hotel guestrooms instead of 35 residential condominiums. Retail space will continue to be included on the ground floor. The five-story addition to 15 Congress Street is proposed to be nearly identical in massing to that previously reviewed.

Please note that the purpose of this meeting is different than that of a traditional community meeting. As part of the development review process, Impact Advisory Group (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.
