Description:
This is a virtual Public Meeting for the proposed project at 676 Washington Street, located in the Brighton neighborhood of Boston. The purpose of the meeting is to introduce the project to the public in order to gather additional comments and feedback for the development team.
As a first phase of development by this application, the Proponent seeks to restore, renovate, expand and convert the long-existing Church Building at the Property Site into a multifamily residential development of up to approximately 49,500 gross square feet, with up to 33 units of market rate and income restricted housing, below grade garaged parking and related site and access improvements at its newly sub-divided lot of approximately 38,968 square feet (the “Phase 1 Project”). It will retain a majority of the Church Building’s public facing front and side elevations along Washington Street, with a carefully designed and appropriately sited four (4) story addition at the rear. To improve open space, enhance pedestrian access and mitigate vehicular impacts, the Phase 1 Project will also relocate the existing driveway and vast surface parking area at the Site, with an improved central drive lane. New landscape and site planning measures will also be integrated to comport with the Proponent’s potential future restoration, renovation, expansion and residential conversion of the existing Rectory Building at its sub-divided lot, as part of a second phase of development by a subsequent and separate Small Project Review process.
