BPDA will Soon Decide on Dock Square Proposal

Boston Planning and Development Agency (BPDA), formerly the BRA, has held a public meeting (Jan.28) at City Hall to address the Planned Development Area (PDA) filed in association with the Dock Square Garage proposed development.

Lenear Retail Properties, LLC has held 6 or 7 community public meetings to discuss this project before putting forth plans for the Dock Square Garage.

The proposed proposal is to construct an approximately 22,000 square feet, seven-story vertical addition to the existing building and adding another approximately 30,000 square feet of residential space to the lower floors by a combination of horizontal expansion and conversion of the parking area.

The project will contain up to 250 multifamily (luxury) residential units and reduce the current parking spaces to 650 spaces, some of which will be made available for occupants of the residential units included in the project.

The garage will also be redesigned to accommodate valet services and mechanical lifts.

            The close for the comment period was February 22.
