The built environment is shaped by a city’s economics, culture and values. As these elements evolve, so must the built environment, creating a physical “strata” defining the periods of the city’s history.
In Boston in recent years, we have been fortunate to experience low unemployment, positive job growth and residents’ increasing desire to live downtown, which has allowed for the creation and absorption of more than 10,000 new units of housing and millions of square feet of new office, retail and lab buildings. In an era where new real estate is increasingly designed, engineered and traded as a commodity, we must consider what this period of growth will say about us.
The Boston Planning & Development Agency OK'd a proposal Thursday for a 19-story apartment tower at 212-222 Stuart St. in Bay Village. Development firm Transom is behind the project, which will include ground-floor retail or restaurant space, two townhouses and 131 residential units.
The Stuart Street building, proposed by Transom Real Estate, would put 133 apartments, two townhouses, and street-level retail space on the site of a vacant lot and parking lot. The $97 million project doesn’t have any parking spaces but would rent 50 spots in a nearby garage.
