Description:

The BPDA is hosting a Virtual Impact Advisory Group (IAG) Meeting for the 776 Summer Street - Phase 1 project located in South Boston. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the Project Notification Form (PNF) and Planned Development Area (PDA). The meeting will include a presentation followed by Q&A and comments from the IAG, then the general public.

Please note that the purpose of this meeting is different from 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.

HRP 776 Summer Street LLC proposes to develop approximately 15 acres of land located at 776 Summer Street in the South Boston neighborhood. The proposal entails the development of approximately 1.73 million square feet of Gross Floor Area, including: approximately 610,000 square feet of residential use, approximately 860,000 square feet of office/research and development uses, approximately 80,000 square feet of retail uses, approximately 115,000 square feet of hotel use, and up 1,214 parking spaces. The proposal will preserve several historic buildings on the site and provide 5.7 acres of new public open space. The PDA Master Plan contemplates the construction of multiple buildings and the rehabilitation of existing buildings that comprise the proposed Master Plan area.

The Phase 1 Project will be located on 8.4 acres / 364,409 square feet within the approximately 15.2 acre (approximately 661,500 square foot) parcel of land known as and numbered 776 Summer Street in South Boston. The Phase 1 Project includes the rehabilitation of the Edison Turbine Halls 1, 2, and 3 and the construction of the buildings on Blocks D and F.
