Description:
The Boston Planning Department is hosting a virtual public meeting for the proposed On the Square project located at 587 Washington Street in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the Project Notification Form (PNF) that was filed. The meeting will include a presentation followed by questions and comments from the public.
The following description was provided by the development team:
OTS is a new development project that will transform approximately 10,000 square feet of existing retail office building into a new mixed-use building in Codman Square. The project will demolish the existing building and garage in an adjacent lot to construct a new five-story mixed use commercial/residential containing 73,472 square feet of office/residential space. The commercial/retail space will bring back some existing tenants of the current building and will potentially add new retail tenants. The residential portion of the building will include 41 affordable rental units to families with incomes below 60% AMI. There will be 14 one-bedroom units, 23 two bed units and 4 three bed units available for these tenants. The new building will be energy efficient while meeting Passive House requirements and will greatly improve the current streetscape while adding open space for residents on the roof deck as an amenity.
