Description:

The proposed development program provides a mix of uses complimentary to the fabric of the Back Bay. The Project proposes an eight-story mixed use building, building upon the existing three-story building and adding five levels on top of 761-793 Boylston Street. The Project proposes approximately 15,830 SF of retail, 25,720 SF of office/fitness and nine residential units within the top three stories totaling approximately 18,600 SF. The retail uses occupies level 1 through level 2, followed by office space on levels 3 through 5, and residential units on levels 6 through 8. A rooftop amenity for the residential units is also imagined. A lobby accessed from an entrance on Boylston Street leads to a compact vertical elevator and fire stair core located to the northern edge of the floor plan. The core provides access to all upper levels.

Due to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) has postponed all in-person BPDA-held public meetings regarding Article 80 development projects and planning initiatives. View more information on the BPDA's COVID-19 response.

The BPDA is hosting a virtual Impact Advisory Group (IAG) Meeting, open to the public, for the 761-793 Boylston Street project. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the Project Notification Form (PNF) filing for the project. The meeting will include a presentation and discussion with the IAG followed by Q&A and comments from the general public.

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.
