Dorchester has
seen a tremendous amount of growth over the past few months in
areas surrounding the Ashmont T Station and along Dorchester Ave.
That growth continues to expand further into Dorchester as there
has been a proposal for dozens of new apartments and townhouses in
Uphams Corner.
According to
Boston.com Dorchester Bay Economic Development Corp wants to
build 80 one, two and three-bedroom apartments and six two-single
family homes for sale. Also, the project will include 20,000 square
feet for commercial or light industrial businesses.
This brand new project would be within an arms reach of the
Uphams Corner stop on the Fairmount commuter rail line on a site
that was once the old Maxwell Box factory. The developer plans to
acquire city and state permits for construction over the next six
months with a two to three build-out period slated for the first
phase of the project, the apartments.
The total project cost including the commercial space is
expected to be a total cost of $36 million.
As prices continue to grow throughout the city, Dorchester is
becoming more and more desirable for prospective buyers, renters
and developers. For more information or to inquire about Dorchester
