Description:

IREP Newbury Hotel, LLC, an affiliate of Highgate Hotels, is proposing to reconfigure the main entrance of the Taj Hotel from the current location on Arlington Street to the building’s frontage on Newbury Street, permanently enclosing the existing seasonal rooftop restaurant, updating the existing 195 hotel rooms, and adding 16 new hotel rooms for a total of 211 rooms.

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 and mitigation to offset those impacts. IAG meetings prioritize discussion between the project proponent (i.e. the developer) and IAG members.

* Wheelchair accessible access is located on Newbury Street next to the Main entrance.

At this time, the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) is continuing to host public meetings in a virtual setting for the health, safety, and accessibility of Boston residents. For more information and updates, visit bostonplans.org.
