Housing Advocates Release Boston City Council Candidate Questionnaire

The proposed Northampton Street Residences is one of the handful of housing developments that Boston approved in 2020 that will include no on-site parking lots or garages. The project would replace a surface parking lot with 47 new affordable homes adjacent to the Southwest Corridor Park and the Mass. Ave. Orange Line station. As of August 2023, the project has not yet started construction. Rendering by Höweler + Yoon Architecture, courtesy of the BPDA.
