Re: St. Francis House wants to build 19-story mixed-income tower on Lagrange Street i
So this is directly next to the proposed 47-55 Langrange Street tower. It'll be interesting to have all of these tall buildings on what basically is not much more then an alley.

Re: St. Francis House wants to build 19-story mixed-income tower on Lagrange Street i
129 units, 130k square feet of space on a small 8500 square feet lot, Should actually be a really skinny, fairly dense tower if approved and financed. I do question why they cant add more units but I guess a tower that skinny there's got to be a lot of mechanical space.

The corner of that parcel is inches away from the corner of the Kensington on 1 side....
and inches from 47 La Grange on the other side. too bad they didn't join up with 47 Lagrange months ago. |

Re: St. Francis House wants to build 19-story mixed-income tower on Lagrange Street i
Well, financially this is a very different project from 47 LaGrange. This is very high affordable content development, being financed largely through tax credits and developed by the development office of the Archdioceses of Boston (Planning Office for Urban Affairs). I doubt a for-profit developer would want to join their effort. 47 LaGrange is a luxury building.

Not yet. Nothing but a LOI has been filed, thus the demo is likely unrelated to the project.

Re: St. Francis House | 19-story mixed-income tower | Lagrange Street | Chinatown
Stopped by here today - there are two earthmovers doing serious excavation on site. There's a sign up for "The Union at 48 Boylston" - the 46 affordable apartments + retail space. This isn't 48 Boylston though. Is the new building going to back up onto here?

http://www.bostonplans.org/projects/...iew=1&type=dev So there is no 19-story mixed-income tower proposal anymore. At some point, once 48 Boylston renovation is done, presumably the 47 LaGrange apartment tower construction will commence, given that the project was approved months ago... |
