Boston Mayor Kim Janey (D) joined the officials from the Boston Housing Authority (BHA), WinnCompanies and MassHousing to formally open a unique $30.2 million development project that delivers 52 units of both rental and homeownership opportunities to households of all incomes along the East Boston waterfront, WinnCompanies said in an announcement.
The WinnDevelopment project demolished 20 units of obsolete public housing at the BHA property formerly known as Clippership Apartments to build Harbor125 Apartments, offering 22 modern apartment homes for low- and extremely low-income households, and Harborwalk Residences, featuring 30 condominiums to be sold to middle-income and market-rate households, the announcement said.
“The Clippership Apartments, housing 22 rental units, will be welcoming back many families who were living here before the development plans were fully realized. Now those families are returning to newly constructed high quality modern living spaces,” Janey said. “I am proud to be a part of powerful investment in the people and the community of East Boston.”
