On May 21, 2015 Dorchester Bay and partners Boston Capital, Escazu Development, and New Market Community Partners were awarded a 2.7 acre parcel of land at 65 East Cottage Street, adjacent to the Uphams Corner station on the Fairmount Line. The development team will build 80 rental units for 3 income levels, including low-income, middle-income, and workforce; 6 two-family market rate homes; and 20,000 square feet of light industrial space.
This is an exciting project for Dorchester Bay – we are eager to transform this vacant parcel into high quality, affordable housing for our community, to bring new job opportunities to the neighborhood, and to provide a more direct link to the train station right next to the property.
